Briggend is an impressive four-bedroom period home occupying an attractive position at Bridge End in West Thirston, close to the River Coquet. Extending to approximately 1,883 sq ft and arranged over three floors, this is a substantial home with a great deal of character and some particularly impressive room sizes.
Dating back to the 1800s, the property retains plenty of period detail, including exposed stonework, ceiling beams, parquet and stone flooring, complemented by a number of more contemporary finishes. The property also benefits from discreet heating, with radiators cleverly incorporated within the skirting boards to maintain the character and appearance of the rooms.
The ground floor offers excellent living and entertaining space. The sitting room features exposed stonework and a wood-burning stove, while the kitchen/breakfast room is fitted with Shaker-style cabinetry and granite work surfaces. The dining/family room is another standout space, providing plenty of room for both dining and relaxed seating.
On the first floor are two excellent double bedrooms, including a principal bedroom with its own en-suite wet room. The family bathroom features a freestanding bath and separate shower, while a further large sitting room provides an additional reception space which could suit a number of different uses.
Two further bedrooms occupy the second floor, completing the four-bedroom layout and making excellent use of the upper level of the property.
Outside, the property has a rear courtyard with two traditional brick-built stores providing useful additional storage. Steps rise to an established elevated garden, predominantly laid to lawn with mature trees, shrubs and planting, with an attractive outlook across the surrounding village.
West Thirston sits alongside Felton and the River Coquet, with Felton offering a useful range of everyday amenities, places to eat and drink, primary schooling and attractive riverside walks. The A1 is readily accessible for travel towards Alnwick, Morpeth and Newcastle, while the Northumberland coastline is also within easy reach.
