The Property

The Bothy is an attractive stone-built property nestled in a rural yet accessible location close to the pretty village of Stamfordham. The property forms part of a small and exclusive development of beautiful barn conversions at Dodley Farm and is finished to an exceptional standard with the benefit of lovely gardens with south/west aspect and a detached double garage with office.

The front door opens to the light, airy and welcoming entrance hall with wood flooring that flows to the living spaces either side. The relaxing contemporary décor sets the tone for the whole property and a useful ground floor WC is located off the hall. The expansive sitting room features a woodburning stove set within an exposed brick fireplace with timber mantel over. The room is filled with natural light from a large window and a fully glazed door that opens to the patio and gardens. Clean, neutral colour palettes add to the sense of open space for a peaceful atmosphere. Across the hall is the fabulous kitchen/dining room with a dual aspect that includes French doors out to the gardens. There is plenty of storage and workspace, with discreet integrated appliances and a Belfast sink. The central island provides further workspace as well as a spot for casual dining. There is lots of space for a full dining table and chairs, positioned to catch the light from the French doors.

There are four bedrooms arranged across the first floor, all finished to the same impressive standard found throughout The Bothy. All of the bedrooms feature exposed wood ceiling beams that are a charming reminder of the history of the building. The principal bedroom has an abundance of fitted storage and an en-suite shower room with a light and modern suite. The three remaining bedrooms are served by the family bathroom with suite comprising bath with shower over, wash hand basin and WC set in a vanity unit and heated towel rail.

Externally

The Bothy benfits from a fantastic detached double garage which also houses a private office. This is the perfect place to work from home while keeping home and work life completely separate. The garage offers great flexibility, and is currently configured as a gym. In addition to the garage there is also ample parking via the gravelled driveway.

Generous gardens stretch away from the front elevation facing south and west to capture the best of the sun throughout the day. A flagged footpath winds through the lawn to the patio. The lawns are easily maintained with fenced boundaries and a mature tree to one corner. A substantial log store is tucked behind the garage offering further practicality.

Local Information

Stamfordham is an attractive Northumberland village situated perfectly for both the peaceful countryside and easy commuter access. For outdoor enthusiasts there are a wealth of opportunities with the spectacular UNESCO World Heritage Site of Hadrian's Wall on the doorstep. Wallington Hall and Kielder Water are also nearby so the property is well-located for walking, cycling and horse riding. Stamfordham itself and nearby Matfen offer a range of local amenities including village shop and tea room, public house, doctors surgery, cricket clubs and village halls, together with Matfen Hall with its golf courses, swimming pool and spa and award winning restaurant.
