The home is situated in a private location, yet remains within a short walk of the village and railway station.

The property is accessed through an attractive stone-pillared entrance, shared with East Glade, which leads to the property's large and private driveway.

There is parking for several cars in front of a detached stone-built double garage.

Once inside, a welcoming lobby leads into the central entrance hall, where a return staircase rises to the first floor.

To the right, the sitting room is a light and comfortable dual-aspect room with a wood-burning stove as its focal point.

Double doors from the hall then open into the heart of the home, which provides a "magnificent" open-plan kitchen, dining, and family space.

The kitchen is fitted with bespoke modern cabinetry and quality work surfaces, and has a comprehensive range of integrated appliances and a large central island that provides generous preparation space and informal seating.

This space flows naturally into the dining area, which is ideal for entertaining, and also into the family room.

An external door opens to the side of the house and back to the garage, which is ideal for families coming in from the garden, countryside walks, or from the car without passing through the main living areas.

The gardens wrap around the front and side of the house, and the front is mainly lawn framed by mature borders, creating a calm and private setting.

They have superb views across the valley and are the perfect spot for a morning coffee or an evening drink.

Riding Mill's village amenities include a pub, two village halls, churches, a tennis club, and a busy calendar of clubs and societies.

The village is served by Riding Mill railway station, which has direct trains to Newcastle and Carlisle.

The property has an asking price of offers over £995,000.
