The Property
Laburnum Cottage is a detached Georgian stone cottage set within a conservation area in a sought-after commuter village in the Tyne Valley, where recent renovations and a design-led extension have introduced modern comfort to a characterful period structure. The property offers beautifully executed interiors, a newly landscaped south-facing garden and a large, modern garden office, all discreetly positioned behind timber gates. From the newly installed hardwood, double-glazed sash windows to the stone boundary walls and carefully considered interior finishes, every element has been chosen to complement the character of the setting while elevating the overall quality and specification of the property.

A welcoming entrance porch leads through to two generous reception rooms positioned to either side. Both the sitting room and dining room feature wood-burning stoves set into restored stone fireplaces, with tall sash windows drawing in light from the front courtyard. Each space offers flexibility, whether for formal gatherings or relaxed family use. A utility room and guest WC provide practical support for everyday living, with space for laundry, storage and coats.

To the rear, the house flows into a striking vaulted kitchen and family room, the centrepiece of the recent extension. Finished with quartz worktops, soft-close cabinetry and a Neff oven with induction hob, the kitchen is equipped for everyday use and entertaining alike. A Rangemaster Belfast sink, deep breakfast bar and dual aspect glazing add both functionality and architectural appeal. This bright and versatile room opens directly onto the garden terrace through wide sliding doors and benefits from wet underfloor heating beneath timber-effect flooring. Integrated into the space is a Bluetooth-enabled DAB radio and audio system, connected to discreet ceiling-mounted speakers, providing high-quality sound throughout the room for music, radio and entertainment.

Upstairs, the first floor accommodates three bedrooms and a well-appointed family bathroom. The principal bedroom offers generous proportions and garden views, with ample space for freestanding furniture or built-in storage. A further double bedroom and third single bedroom are arranged around the central landing. The family bathroom is finished in a soft, neutral palette with a patterned tiled floor, traditional-style fittings, a double-ended tub and a corner shower cubicle with rainfall shower.

Externally
To the front, timber gates open to a gravelled area offering ample parking and access to a newly constructed garage with power, lighting and eaves storage. The frontage is framed by stone boundary walls and planted borders, offering a welcoming and well-tended approach.

The south-facing rear garden has been newly landscaped to provide privacy and year-round interest, with a level lawn, paved terrace and mature stone walling. A bespoke timber log store provides convenient storage for fuel for the property's two wood-burning stoves. The detached garden office sits beyond the main lawn and has been built to a high standard with underfloor heating, excellent insulation and potential for solar panel installation. It includes a storeroom with multiple power sockets and automatic PIR lighting, together with two separate workspaces, making it ideally suited to home working, hobbies or creative pursuits.
