Main Description
46 Castle Street is a pretty, end terraced, two bedroom house within the sought-after village of Norham in North Northumberland. The cottage is in need of modernisation but has plenty of potential to form an up-to-date welcoming home, second home or holiday investment.
Accommodation
The front door leads from Castle Street into an entrance hall with the staircase to the first floor straight ahead. The spacious living room has plenty of light from windows facing front and rear and a stone-built feature fireplace with an open fire. From the living room a hallway with a large understairs storage cupboard leads through to the kitchen. To the rear of the kitchen a small sunroom leads on to the back garden.
Upstairs the landing gives access to a good-sized bathroom with a mixer tap and shower head over the bath, a wash hand basin and WC along with small wall and floor storage cupboards and a heated towel rail. There are two double bedrooms with built in wardrobes and a large storage cupboard in the main bedroom.
Outside at the rear there is vehicular access over the neighbouring properties to a garage and stone-built outbuildings. A set of steps, shared with the neighbouring property, lead to a raised, well-maintained garden, part patio/part lawn, ideal for summer BBQ’s and alfresco dining. There is also a shed, greenhouse and washing line.
The property is fully double glazed.
Location
The pretty village of Norham lies on the southern bank of the River Tweed just a stone’s throw from the Scottish Border and is quintessentially English with a well-attended church and historic castle set around a picturesque village green. Norham boasts excellent local amenities including a village store, a bakery, a local butcher, a primary school and doctor’s surgery. There are two pubs in the village and for those who love the traditional British take-away, the fish and chip van on a Thursday night is not to be missed.
Berwick upon Tweed is within easy reach and provides further comprehensive cultural, educational, recreational and shopping facilities together with modern sports and arts centres. An East Coast railway station provides regular services to Newcastle, Edinburgh and London. The A1 is within easy reach providing excellent access to the national, regional and local road network and Newcastle and Edinburgh International Airports are around an hour away.
For local schooling Norham C of E First School provides education from nursery up to Year 4 with Middle and Senior schools available in Berwick-upon-Tweed. In addition, Longridge Towers School is situated nearby and provides private education from nursery up to 18 years.
The wider area of North Northumberland has a rich and colourful history and offers a wealth of sporting and recreational opportunities. There are a number of excellent links and inland golf courses and racecourses at Kelso and Newcastle. The River Tweed and its tributaries provide internationally acclaimed salmon fishing and there is also good sea trout and trout fishing available locally. The east coast provides dramatic scenery, magnificent sandy beaches, sailing, sea fishing and diving. The local area is one of relatively low population, offering a peaceful lifestyle, but is within easy reach of both Edinburgh and Newcastle.
