THE PROPERTY
An exciting opportunity has arisen to handcraft your own home from this handsome stone built barn. Forming part of the attractive hamlet of Fenwick, it is located near to Matfen Village and the Tyne Valley in prime Northumbrian countryside.
Planning Permission (reference: CM/20071018) has been granted for the creation of a bespoke family home on a level north/south facing site. As work within this consent has commenced the planning will not expire.
Fenwick Tower Barn sits within a pleasant plot and the freehold is offered for sale. A snug leads off a spacious reception hall and a generous open plan living, dining kitchen with utility off allows just the right mix of formal and informal space. There are three double bedrooms and two bathrooms including an en-suite bathroom to the principal bedroom which also has a separate dressing room or study/home office if preferred.
Fenwick Tower Barn is absolutely the answer for someone aspiring to create their own perfect home in a first class and beautiful part of rural, yet convenient Northumberland.
OUTSIDE
The approach to Fenwick Tower Barn is over a sweeping driveway and there is provision for ample parking. The barn looks out over gardens to the front and rear and there is also a separate paddock. Currently uncultivated, the gardens offer the opportunity to create an individual haven from which to enjoy the beauty of the surrounding countryside.
SERVICES
Mains water and electricity are available nearby. A sewage treatment plant is in place for the village but a connection would have to be made.
