SITUATION AND DESCRIPTION Breckbeybed Cottage is a charming detached property traditionally built in pale local sandstone and like many of the houses in the area, rumoured to be built with stone from

Hadrian's Wall. The setting is outstanding being private and hidden from the road accessed over a small bridge to a track that leads through a field to the property. The open views are delightful. The Northumbrian National Park is home to 's cleanest river, clearest air and darkest sky. The accessibility of the location is superb with good access to the A69 which is the main arterial route connecting Newcastle in the east with Carlisle and the M6 in the west. Travelling distances are manageable with areas of natural and historic interest all within easy reach. These include the North Pennines Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, the delightful Eden Valley and the Lake District National Park. There are a wide variety of amenities available in the various towns and villages to the east and west.

Breckneybed Cottage is a delightful and rather unique settlement. It is rare to find a modernised cottage with significant acreage. The balanced accommodation retains character and is offered in good order.

Entrance is via the porch which leads into the dining hall, this sits in the centre of the home and double doors access the modern fitted kitchen with a range cooker. To the left the lovely sitting room has a cosy wood-burning stove. Views abound from every window and the sitting room is no exception having a dual aspect and patio door out onto the terrace. Two double bedrooms are on the first floor and for convenience there are two bathrooms, one located on the ground floor has a modern white three piece suite. The second, a shower room on the first floor includes a bidet.

Whilst the property is perfectly formed there is also potential to extend if required. The stone outbuilding is a great asset but also offers potential for alternative use. Viewing is highly recommended to fully appreciate the gem that is Breckneybed Cottage.
