The Property

Thornbrough House is a truly beautiful Grade II Listed property located in a desirable and accessible location, only a few minutes from the centre of Corbridge in the heart of the Tyne Valley. The gorgeous stone-built property was originally an early 18th century farmhouse that was extended in the early 19th century. Modern additions have created the stunning home that stands today, with pretty formal gardens and land extending to around 4.85 acres. The property as a whole extends to over 6.1 acres and will surely appeal to a wide range of purchasers, including equestrian enthusiasts looking for a manageable and compact set up.

Thornbrough House offers a remarkable and expansive country home with great flexibility and versatility. The property can easily be configured as a fabulous main house, along with a substantial annexe. Both the house and annexe would have their own private access, reception rooms and superb kitchen/breakfast rooms. The quality and specification is superb throughout, with elegant décor, appealing original features and exceptional attention to detail combining to offer a wonderful country house atmosphere.

The welcoming vestibule leads to the hall and the lovely formal drawing room to the front elevation. Double doors open to a kitchen/breakfast room with a sitting area, creating a light and open flow. Both rooms are hugely attractive, with a blend of period features and sleek contemporary finishes. The kitchen is served by a utility room with a WC tucked off to one side. The largest reception room is the spectacular and expansive sitting room/dining room, with further reception space available in the relaxing garden room. The games room is a versatile space that could become a generous snug, or even an extra bedroom if required, as it benefits from an adjoining shower room. At the heart of the home is a stunning kitchen/breakfast room with AGA that is perfect for modern entertaining. Another utility room serves this kitchen, adding further practicality. The striking atrium is a fantastic addition, linking to a pantry, study, boot room and WC. A third WC completes the ground floor accommodation.

There are eight bedrooms arranged across the first and second floors. Four bedrooms on the first floor benefit from en-suite facilities, whilst the fifth is adjacent to a lovely boutique bathroom. The bedrooms are elegantly appointed and the bathrooms and shower rooms feature stylish finishes with high quality fixtures and fittings. The three second floor bedrooms are served by another bathroom. There is great flexibility to configure the accommodation for individual needs.
