The Property
North Barn is an outstanding, recently completed barn conversion that combines bold contemporary architecture with bespoke craftsmanship and impressive energy efficiency. The property enjoys far-reaching panoramic views while offering a refined lifestyle home designed with meticulous attention to detail throughout.
The exterior features a sharp steel-clad finish, while advanced eco credentials, including solar panels and air-source heat pumps, deliver an impressive EPC A rating. The property extends to approximately 2.1 acres, incorporating two secure paddocks and a detached double garage.
At the heart of the home is a spectacular open-plan kitchen, dining and living space, flooded with natural light and enjoying approximately 180-degree countryside views through extensive glazing and two sets of bi-fold doors. The bespoke, hand-crafted kitchen is fitted with a triple electric AGA, quartz worktops, Belfast sink and a substantial central island incorporating a wine fridge. A discreet Bluetooth speaker system is integrated within the space, while an adjoining utility room with double Belfast sink and pantry enhances everyday practicality.
Stone flag flooring runs throughout the ground floor, complemented by subtle integrated floor lighting and underfloor heating throughout. Additional accommodation includes a dedicated cinema room with projector screen, a study, boot room, plant room and a WC finished with high-quality Thomas Crapper fittings.
A bespoke oak-tread and metal staircase leads to the first floor, which currently comprises three generously proportioned bedrooms and a games room with pool table. The principal suite is a luxurious retreat, featuring dual walk-in wardrobes and an open-plan en-suite with Fired Earth tiles, Thomas Crapper fittings and a statement copper Japanese soaking tub, positioned to take in uninterrupted countryside views. Discreet Bluetooth speakers are also incorporated within the principal bedroom.
Two further bedrooms are served by a stylish Jack-and-Jill en-suite, while a separate family bathroom includes an Aquastone stone square bath and a large walk-in shower. Cast-iron column radiators feature throughout the first floor, with electric towel rails in the en-suites.
The accommodation is currently arranged to suit modern family living, with a cinema room, study and games room. However, the generous room sizes and well-considered layout offer excellent flexibility, allowing spaces to be reimagined as additional bedrooms, home offices or leisure rooms to suit a wide range of lifestyle requirements.
The property is approached via bespoke automated gates, opening to a substantial private driveway with parking for multiple vehicles. The detached double garage benefits from electric doors, mains power, Wi-Fi and a double electric vehicle charging point, future-proofing the property for modern living.
Designed to make the most of the panoramic countryside views and excellent sun exposure, the outdoor spaces are ideal for both relaxation and entertaining. A generous south-facing terrace provides the perfect setting to enjoy the landscape throughout the day and into the evening, complemented by a Finnish barrel sauna, six-person hot tub, wooden barrel plunge pool, a well-designed outdoor kitchen and thoughtfully integrated external lighting.
The gardens have been carefully landscaped for low maintenance, incorporating ten raised beds and a greenhouse, allowing for productive growing while prioritising leisure and enjoyment of the setting. A water-trough water feature provides an attractive focal point within the grounds.
A secondary gated access leads to additional parking, with both a smaller gravel paddock and a larger grass paddock enclosed within the grounds, ideal for dogs or lifestyle use.
North Barn is located in the picturesque countryside of Northumberland, perfectly positioned for exploring both Northumberland and County Durham. The area is rich in outdoor activities, with the Derwent Reservoir nearby, ideal for walking, cycling, sailing, and fishing. The historic town of Corbridge and the market town of Hexham offer charming shops, cafes, and restaurants.
For education, there are several local first schools, with Slaley First School being the closest, offering before and after-school clubs five days a week. Other options include Riding Mill First School and Corbridge First School. For older children, Corbridge Middle School and Hexham High School offer door-to-door transport via taxi and bus. Mowden Hall Preparatory School, located just outside Corbridge, provides private education from nursery up to age 13, and several private day schools are available in Newcastle.
