From Sanderson Young SITUATION AND DESCRIPTION

Mill House at St John Lee, near Hexham, provides a stunning stone-built farm conversion, beautifully located within a small secluded hamlet. The property was part of a redevelopment carried out circa 2008 and has been beautifully modernised, refurbished and extended in recent times by the current owners.

The property itself is presented to a very high standard, with a magnificent aspect and west-facing views to the rear, overlooking the valley and towards the village of Acomb. This is a particularly beautiful aspect and a very attractive feature of the house.

The principal entrance to the property is from the side elevation, where there is a lovely panelled door leading through into the reception hall. The hallway includes super solid oak wood flooring and useful under-stairs storage space, as well as a door off to a well-appointed cloak room/wc. Two doors lead from the hallway to principal accommodation. The first is to the family sitting room, which is a stunning room with two large arched windows providing a south-facing aspect over the rear gardens. This is a beautiful room with solid oak wood floor and a super log burning fire, as well as a partial dividing wall concealing a useful study and working office.

The second door leading from the hallway connects into the kitchen/breakfasting room with solid oak wood flooring, fabulous exposed roof timber, Velux windows and a window overlooking the side. The kitchen is superbly equipped and fitted with a range of cream fronted cabinets and solid wood worktops, as well as ‘Siemens’ refrigerator and ‘Stoves’ cooking facilities. A generous opening leads on to the extension, which was added in recent years and provides a magnificent garden room and day-to-day sitting room. This is a particularly impressive extension including a fabulous, floor-to-ceiling picture window framing the stunning countryside and valley adjacent and a door leading out on to the patio area and gardens.

The staircase leads up to the first floor landing which includes exposed roofing timbers and five doors off to principal accommodation. The master bedroom is a large double room incorporating built in wardrobes, lovely feature timbers to the roof and outstanding views over the surrounding countryside. A glazed door leads out on to an external stone staircase linking down to the gardens below, which is particularly pleasant in the summer months. The en-suite luxury shower room includes large shower, good quality tiling, attractive lighting and underfloor heating. The three further double bedrooms are all a good size, with feature exposed roofing timbers, trusses and lovely views.

The family bathroom/wc incorporates a white four piece suite by Roca, including freestanding tub bath by ‘Victoria and Albert’ and a separate shower cubicle. The stone tiling and quality presentation to the bathroom are key features.

Externally, a gravel drive leads up to the property and there is a single plus parking bay within the pole barn, which has good storage areas. Within the pole barn, to the northern wing, there is a large double-storey store room.

Double gates lead from the driveway and connect on to the private garden of Mill House, which extends to the rear and side of the property, with a western elevation and a stunning aspect and views over the Tyne Valley and towards Acomb House.

The garden is beautifully landscaped with lawned areas, stone flagged terraces and patios, beauti- ful flower beds and maturing shrubs and hedges. The borders are well stocked with flowers and lavender. Extending to the rear of the gardens, the property also has a lovely soft play area, which is very attractive.

To the southern elevation of the house there is a triangular shaped garden edged with a maturing beech hedge which is particularly pleasant and sheltered during the summer months. The property itself has great style and quality with superb interior design, double glazing and mains gas central heating including underfloor heating to the ground floor.

St John Lee has easy access into the market town of Hexham and the A69, which links in turn into Newcastle and throughout the Tyne Valley, including the popular village of .

This is a fabulous location and a beautiful home. Viewing is strongly recommended.
