Tarset, Hexham, Northumberland, NE48

Peacefully secluded yet conveniently close to the well-served villages of Bellingham and Otterburn, the property combines privacy with accessibility. Built after WW2 as a library for a prominent local land owner. The upper floor has fittings dating back to the early Victorian period having been removed from another residence where today they form an integral part of the main space and character of this unique building. The house has since been thoughtfully reconfigured into a single, spacious family home, offering multiple reception rooms and generous accommodation. Accommodation The heart of the ground floor is the open-plan kitchen/living/dining room, filled with natural light from a large picture window overlooking the gardens to the rear. Centrally a log burner creates a warm focal point for cosy evenings. Off this space lies a generously proportioned double bedroom with room for a king-size bed, a desk area, a walk-in wardrobe, and an en-suite bathroom. Across the entrance hall, you�ll find a cloakroom/WC and two further spacious double bedrooms. One enjoys direct access to a private rear patio and use of a ground-floor bathroom, while the other has its own dressing area and en-suite facilities. A glazed rear hall and staircase lead from the kitchen to the property�s glorious feature space which is the sitting room on the first floor. The library has been sympathetically converted into a spectacular reception space with full fitted kitchen and two distinctive reception areas, one for dining, and the other a spacious seating space. Balconies and roof terraces extend from this room, offering exceptional vantage points for admiring the surrounding countryside and famous star-filled skies. Original features, including elegant glass-fronted bookcases and an Adams-style fireplace, are beautifully preserved, complementing the sweeping views over the Tarset landscape toward Kielder. The principle bedroom suite is accessed directly from the sitting room. This bright, expansive room enjoys the same panoramic views and features a striking freestanding roll-top bath at its centre. The private en-suite includes a walk-in shower, WC, and wash hand basin. Outside The property is set within large rear gardens that open onto surrounding fields, sharing the same glorious views as the principal rooms. To the front, a shared driveway leads to gravelled parking area and a garage.
