If you want a home in a semi rural spot with brilliant outdoor space, a property that is bursting with charm and character and is utterly unique, then you MUST view this amazing cottage. Old Wall Cottage is, as its name suggests, old. It sits along Hadrians Wall and was built in 1740. If you like a home with personality then you have found it. QUOTE HG0498
As soon as you arrive you can instantly feel the charisma of this place oozing from the sandstone. It is so pretty and you will want to get inside.
Into the large dining kitchen with original flagged floor, beams and bespoke kitchen units. This room feels warm and inviting as any heart of the home should be. There is plenty of room in here to get the family together. The layout is quirky and from the kitchen there is another room which is currently used as a bedroom but could also be a second reception room. The bathroom, with freestanding roll top bath, is also situated off the kitchen.
The hallway takes you to another bedroom, the master bedroom with ensuite shower room, and porch. Leading directly from the porch there is a door to the rear garden, a handy utility room, and the delightful dual aspect living room with multi fuel stove. This room is bright and airy and is the perfect place for cosy nights in, in the winter or for relaxing while the sunshine streams in, in the summer.
The outdoor space really is the cherry on the cake. There is a garden which wraps itself around the cottage, with shrubs and plants, and even a separate piece of land currently occupied by the family's chickens. Mmmm, fresh eggs in the morning.
The cottage benefits from oil central heating throughout.
With stone floors, thick wonky walls and gorgeous beams, this wonderful cottage is everything you would expect from a Grade 2 listed building. There is so much potential hiding within the interesting walls but are you the one to get those creative juices flowing and make this superb cottage your home? QUOTE HG0498

Whether you stay local and explore the Hadrians Wall walk or drive to the scenic Lake District, you will always find somewhere different to explore.
