Tucked away in a private yet accessible location, Blossom Hill is a substantial barn conversion set in lovely mature gardens.

It has extensive and stunning countryside views and would be suitable for a range of buyers, from those requiring a large family home to people wishing to run a home-based business.

The well-proportioned and flexible accommodation offers potential for bed and breakfast purposes, while a large, detached garage could become additional living space.

Following extensive consultation with the local council, plans have already been drawn up for conversion of the garage to a holiday cottage. This could attract walkers on the nearby Hadrian’s Wall Trail and visitors to the Roman sites on the Military Road.

The substantial garage could equally have potential for use as a workshop, studio, storage or a home office.

Blossom Hill has a wealth of attractive features, from the oak hardwood flooring in many of the rooms to the superb breakfasting kitchen and conservatory with extensive rural views.

An entrance hall with cloakroom and coat cupboard leads to the light and airy sitting room. This dual-aspect space is warmed by a wood-burning stove in a feature stone fireplace and has French doors to the conservatory.

A study with built-in cupboards has a loft ladder to a work/hobbies area which is extensively shelved and suitable for a variety of uses.

The dining room, large and with fabulous open views, is reached from the entrance hall and has a door to the breakfasting kitchen.

This is a particularly attractive room with a peninsular unit dividing food preparation and sitting areas. It has an extensive range of fitted wall and floor units, integrated appliances, spotlights, an Aga in a stone recess and French doors to the garden.

A utility room with tiled flooring has plumbing for laundry appliances, while an inner hallway with lots of built-in storage leads to the bedrooms.

The master bedroom overlooks the gardens and has an en-suite shower room. The second bedroom forms part of a suite, with roof trusses and a window seat in the bedroom area and a dressing room leading to an en-suite shower room.

The third and fourth bedrooms share the fully-tiled, three-piece family bathroom.

A possible fifth bedroom is on the first floor. It has an oriel window overlooking the gardens. This room, which could also be used as an office, is next to eaves storage.

Blossom Hill offers country style and outdoor living with a secure outdoor space for children to play and a variety of wildlife in the garden.

The property is approached by a shared driveway leading to courtyard parking at both the front and back of the house.

A gravelled terrace surrounds the house and provides a number of areas from which to take in the countryside views.

A mature back garden, offering a great deal of privacy, is mainly laid to lawn with well-stocked borders.

Outbuildings include a summerhouse, hen house and run, greenhouse and garden shed. A gate leads to another garden area where the garaging is located.

There is also an additional wild garden and steps which lead to an old quarry with an enchanting secret garden.

This includes a low-maintenance area with a fire pit and pond.
