Castle Street, Norham, Berwick Upon Tweed, TD15

Description
45 Castle Street is a pretty, end terraced, two-bedroom cottage within the sought-after village of Norham. The property is presented in reasonable condition but would benefit from some upgrading works and would make a lovely family home.

Accommodation
The front door leads from Castle Street into an entrance hall with two good sized reception rooms to either side. From the right hand reception room a doorway leads into a dining kitchen with a window looking out on to the garden. A hallway at the rear of the house gives access to a bathroom with bath, wash hand basin and wc; a rear access to the second reception room and a staircase to the first floor. Upstairs there are two double bedrooms, one with fitted wardrobes and an en-suite shower room which also allows access to a sizeable loft space.

The property has uPVC double glazing and an oil fired central heating system. The garden to the rear is mainly laid to lawn with some mature shrubs and an apple tree and has a small private patio area, ideal for al fresco dining.
