PROPERTY DESCRIPTION

Woodside is a unique two-storey property that has been incredibly well maintained and extended to make it truly impressive. Upon entry from the large driveway you enter the reception hall. A welcoming area that hosts a recessed dining room on the left and to the right the hallway leads to a cloakroom, a study, access to the kitchen, the bedrooms and access to the sitting room at the top of the stairs.

The kitchen, with a newly added extension, is simply amazing. This open plan kitchen with added dining and seating area boasts a glass roof which makes this room. The kitchen is spacious with a large island and comes with a pantry, a double fronted fridge, a utility room, and cooking facilities. This area is at the heart of the house and benefits from the large glass windows and doors that open out onto the flagstone patio and gardens. There is also easy access from a side door next to the detached garage. Within this open plan area is a side room that is currently used as a snug/sitting room.

Coming back into the hall from the kitchen, you will arrive at the staircase and the ground floor bedrooms.

The master bedroom is accessed between the ground floor bedrooms and the family bathroom via a spiral staircase. This bedroom also has a wc and sink, and a dressing room. A great feature to this private bedroom is that it has an enclosed balcony that overlooks the garden and has views across the Cheviots and the Tweed valley. The spacious balcony has enough room to accommodate a sofa and chairs. A tranquil place where you can enjoy the sunrises and sunsets or sit out and read a book and admire the view.

AREA INSIGHTS

Woodside sits in a hamlet called Longridge, just outside Berwick upon Tweed, England’s most northerly market town. The property is ideal for a family with children at Longridge Towers School as it used to be part of the college, making the daily commute safe and easy.

Berwick upon Tweed which is about 3 miles due east of Woodside is famous for its stunning architecture, has a wide selection of amenities and is well serviced with local and national shops, five national supermarkets and further schooling for all ages. Berwick also has a selection of leisure and sports clubs, banks, public houses, restaurants and The Maltings theatre and cinema which offers daily shows and movies. There is a main line railway station which has regular trains to both Edinburgh, Newcastle and London, both Edinburgh and Newcastle are sub one hour travel time and London is circa 3 hours 45 minutes. There is also the A1 trunk road which bypasses the town and provides easy access to both north and south respectively.

The local area has a wide range of popular attractions and activities including Northumberland and Berwickshire’s rugged coastlines of unspoilt beaches and beautiful landscapes. Berwick upon Tweed’s historic Elizabethan walls and pier are nearby, while Lindisfarne National Nature Reserve, Bamburgh Castle and the ancient Border towns of Coldstream, Kelso and Melrose are within easy reach. Country and sporting pursuits are also readily available, including hill walking, salmon and trout fishing, riding, hunting and shooting. Golf is available locally, nearby courses include Magdalene Fields at Berwick, Goswick and Eyemouth. Swimming, gym, squash and indoor bowling facilities exist at the Berwick Sports and Leisure in Berwick-upon-Tweed.

Despite Woodside's proximity to both Edinburgh and Newcastle, the area has a low population and can therefore offer a quality of life that is becoming increasingly rare.
