MARTON HOUSE
Marton House is an attractive Georgian manor house built of local red sandstone under a slate roof with a handsome entrance portico. The house was built by the renowned north east architect Ignatius Bonomi in the early 1800s. Although the property is not listed, many period features have been retained enhancing what is a well-proportioned family house. Internally the total accommodation, including cottage and coach house, extends to over 9,000 sq ft as shown on the floorplan.

The ground floor includes: reception hall, entered via the portico with period fanlight, leading into the drawing room, sitting room, library, dining kitchen, orangery with french doors, two pantries, office, downstairs WC and cellars. Two staircases lead to the first floor which comprises five double bedrooms, four of which have en-suite bathrooms plus a three piece family bathroom suite.
