Amersidelaw Farmhouse, Chatton, Alnwick, Northumberland

Amersidelaw Farmhouse offers a rare opportunity to purchase a substantial and imposing detached period farmhouse which enjoys a fabulous elevated position, surrounded by 20 acres of mature formal gardens, grounds and woodland. Set within the heart of the North Northumberland countryside, with stunning views of the Northumberland National Park and Cheviot Hills.

This beautiful home dates back to the early 1800's and has in recent years been beautifully refurbished to create this impressive family home finished to an exceptional standard. A significant addition to this property is the substantial range of outbuildings set to a 'U' shaped courtyard including barns with byre style entrance and haylofts as well as handsome dovecote with lovely walled garden, offering excellent potential for further development (subject to appropriate permissions and planning).

Amersidelaw sits just 1.5 miles from the pretty village of Chatton within the Glendale valley on the river Till. Chatton itself enjoys a thriving community with village store/post office, church and village hall, as well as Cricket Club, Gallery and Gastro pub, the Percy Arms. Whilst being close to the historic Chillingham Castle, famous for its wild cattle, Amersidelaw is also just a few miles inland from the stunning coastline and beaches of Bamburgh, Budle Bay and Lindisfarne.
