A stone-built home which has been in the same family for six decades is for sale in a Northumberland hamlet.

The two-bed Dene View, built in 1926, marks its 100th year in 2026. The property has been owned by the same family since 1966 and is being offered for sale with no forward chain in Westwood.

Set on a 0.11-acre plot, the home enjoys far-reaching views across the valley from the rear of the property. It is situated near Bardon Mill, within easy reach of Vindolanda, Hadrian’s Wall, near the A69 and rail links.

The house includes a lounge with a central fireplace, a traditional kitchen, pantry, entrance conservatory, guest WC and two bedrooms. A family bathroom includes a bath and separate walk-in shower, while a former sewing room offers potential as a small study or home-working space.

One of the property’s standout features is its timber-framed sunroom, accessed through double doors from the lounge. With glazing across two sides, it overlooks the mature gardens and countryside beyond, including views towards alpacas across the nearby burn.

The sunroom is an ideal setting for dining, relaxing or simply enjoying the garden throughout the seasons, particularly for birdwatchers, as a vast array of birds visit the bird table each day.

A cellar beneath the sunroom, accessed externally, has lighting and electricity and offers additional storage space.

Outside, Dene View has established front and rear gardens with mature hedging, trees, shrubs, planted borders and two elevated patio areas. The enclosed gardens provide privacy while retaining views across the surrounding countryside.

The property also benefits from a gated driveway, detached garage and several outbuildings with electricity. A detached outhouse with lighting, sockets, shelving and a double-glazed window could be used as a home office, while an adjoining former coal store is currently used for garden equipment.

Westwood offers a quiet rural setting while remaining close to amenities in Bardon Mill, including a shop, pub, bus stop and railway station. Haltwhistle is around 4.8 miles away, while Hexham is approximately 11.5 miles away.
