The property is located to the edge of Ellingham, a quaint village located within the heart of the Northumberland countryside, situated approximately 6 miles inland of the beautiful Northumberland coastline.

The village also benefits from great accessibility, with the proximity of the A1(M) allowing villagers easy travel to further afield areas of the region.
Low Nest Cottage was formally the village smithy and retains an abundance of features throughout including the original forge, now a statement fireplace, English oak ceiling beams, latch and batten doors, fabulous open turned bespoke staircase and York flagstone and limestone floors which have underfloor heating throughout the ground floor. Modern additions including solar panels that heat water help to create an absolutely unique and stunning property rarely available to the market.
The property is accessed into an inviting entrance hallway which leads to the kitchen, dining room and one of the ground floor bedrooms that benefits from en-suite. The kitchen is positioned to the rear of the property and has intricate traditional cottage kitchen with small island, Belfast sink, integrated appliances and sublime views. The kitchen links with a delightful breakfast room with curved timber beams and double aspect views of coast and countryside. What a place to enjoy the sunrise at breakfast. The dining room sits within a central position within the home, a room full of grandeur perfect for dinner parties with views looking out to the south facing garden and a large multi fuel stove within inglenook fireplace. From the dining room you access the absolutely stunning living area with the main focal point being the original forge fireplace. The exposed hand crafted timber staircase on wrought iron battens provides a further unique feature. To the rear of the forge is a further superb garden room providing more reception space to relax and soak in the surrounding countryside. Through a secret door you then access the second ground floor bedroom with en-suite. The final two bedrooms are positioned to the first floor each with en-suite facilities but with the master suite benefiting from large fitted wardrobe and splendid en-suite with giant bath and steam shower. The bedrooms are accessed from the minstrel gallery which overlooks the main living area towards the forge fireplace.
In addition to the main house there is an adjoining two bedroom annexe with kitchen, living space and further sun room which would be ideal to generate additional income or for separate family members to reside. There are a number of outbuildings including small home office, a large double garage and modern recently installed shed. The “pigsty” houses the PV panels and spring water tank. The mature garden that wraps around the house provides a host of lawns, flower beds and flagstone patios with hot tub and sauna positioned perfectly to soak up the views. A large driveway provides ample car parking and benefits from EV chargers.
A truly must see property to appreciate the unique setting and wonderful charming characteristics that are even more impressive first hand.
