Birtley, Northumberland

This is a charming and cosy two bedroom stone-built mid-terraced two storey cottage which has in recent years undergone complete refurbishment and now provides a lovely home. The property has gardens to the front and a generous sized patio garden to the rear and in addition there are a variety of outbuildings including a stone-built utility, workshop/storage, an old piggery and then a timber-built garage and a large separate workshop/store. The house is well-presented throughout and enjoys both double glazing and oil-fired central heating and has very pleasant views to the front and far reaching views across farmland to the rear. Situated in this very popular hamlet of Birtley overlooking a green, and children’s play area, this cottage would undoubtedly suit single people, professional couples, young families as well as retirement and we would strongly recommend an internal inspection in order to fully appreciate what is on offer.
