Presenting the very definition of the countryside dream, we are honoured to introduce the extremely rare to the market Low Rigg - an incredibly high standard barn conversion with unrivalled picturesque views. Situated in Allenheads, an area of outstanding natural beauty (AONB), and benefitting from an extensive 11 acres of land, we encourage you to view as soon as possible.
The 19th century barn, which features stunning heritage cast iron guttering, has been lovingly restored to an excellent standard incorporating a wonderful mix of traditional character and contemporary features. The accommodation, which features triple glazing throughout, an air source heat pump and underfloor heating, briefly comprises: state of the art kitchen with ideal utility room and downstairs cloakroom/WC. There is a generous sitting room, with stunning original inglenook fireplace, and a further reception room with ample space for dining.
The first floor, accessed by the staircase in the sitting room, comprises of two well-proportioned double bedrooms. The principal bedroom has the benefit of a range of fitted wardrobes and a very generous ensuite bathroom. There is a lovely and bright shower room, with walk-in rainfall shower, and a second bedroom with stunning views over the countryside and a hatch leading to a boarded loft space with electrics.
Externally, the property benefits from an exceptional 11 acres of land, and is accessed from the statement driveway which has just recently been laid. The external of Low Rigg is considerable, briefly comprising: a double insulated garage built with electric thermally insulated up and over doors plus EV charger, an excellent guest suite or potential Airbnb setup above the garage with stunning views and two insulated log cabins which have electric and double glazing. a Highland polytunnel, vegetable garden, a burn running through the back field, and a chicken coop & run. The property would be suitable as a smallholding.
Furthermore, there are 340 tree saplings planted as part of the Great Northumberland Forest Project which will transfer ownership. There is planning permission for a large orangery where the foundations have already been started (the oak is available by separate negotiation) For our equestrians, the 2 acre field to the front would make for an ideal paddock - there is already hard standing available ready for stabling.
