The Woodlands, Swarland, NE65

Set within beautifully established grounds in the  Northumberland village of Swarland, Stonehaugh is an individual detached bungalow offering an exceptional sense of privacy, generous single-storey accommodation and a wonderfully peaceful setting surrounded by mature trees and landscaped gardens.

Occupying a particularly attractive plot, the property enjoys an almost parkland quality, with sweeping lawns, established woodland and carefully maintained outdoor spaces creating a natural sense of seclusion. The gardens are undoubtedly one of Stonehaugh's most appealing features, offering a rare combination of space, privacy and tranquillity, while providing a beautiful outlook from within the home.

Approached via a generous driveway, the bungalow sits comfortably within its surroundings, with a double garage and ample parking complementing the sense of space. Its attractive stone detailing and welcoming appearance create an immediate impression of a home that has been thoughtfully maintained.

Internally, the accommodation is light, spacious and well proportioned. The entrance hallway introduces one of the property's more distinctive features, a log-burning stove set within an attractive brick fireplace.

The principal sitting room is a particularly inviting space, generously proportioned and enjoying lovely views towards the gardens. An elegant archway provides a connection to the dining room, creating a natural flow between the two reception areas.

The kitchen is arranged in a practical layout, with a range of fitted cabinetry, work surfaces,  usefully positioned alongside the dining room. A separate utility room provides additional practicality.

The bedroom accommodation comprises three well-proportioned rooms, each offering comfortable and versatile space. The principal bedroom is particularly generous, while the remaining bedrooms lend themselves equally well to guest accommodation, family use or a dedicated home office.

A family bathroom, additional shower room and separate WC complete the accommodation, further enhancing the convenience of single-storey living.

The Gardens and Grounds

It is outside that Stonehaugh truly comes into its own.

The property occupies a wonderfully generous and private plot. The grounds have a lovely balance of open lawn and more sheltered areas beneath the trees. Paved areas adjoining the bungalow offer space for outdoor seating and entertaining, while the wider gardens provide numerous opportunities to enjoy the setting, whether relaxing in the sunshine, gardening or simply appreciating the peace and privacy.

There is a particularly appealing sense of being surrounded by nature, yet with the convenience of village living close at hand.

For those who value outdoor space, Stonehaugh offers something genuinely special: the opportunity to enjoy a substantial, established garden without compromising on the ease and comfort of a single-storey home.
