The Foggett is an immaculately presented, stone-built Georgian farmhouse located just minutes from the vibrant market town of Hexham. This beautiful property offers an idyllic rural retreat with countryside views, providing an exceptional opportunity for those seeking a tranquil lifestyle while remaining conveniently close to local amenities.

Inside, the main living areas are both spacious and tastefully decorated, featuring Amtico flooring throughout much of the ground floor. Thoughtful additions include a downstairs WC, boot room, and a well-equipped utility room complete with a Belfast sink, storage units, and plumbing for both a washing machine and dryer. The kitchen is elegantly designed with ample traditional cream shaker-style base and wall cabinetry, complemented by wooden countertops and integrated appliances. This generous space includes a dining area, perfect for a table and chairs set by the feature fireplace and glazed bi-fold doors that open onto the rear courtyard.

The Foggett also offers two versatile living areas. The formal living room, with an open fireplace, provides dual-aspect views over the gardens, while a cosy snug warmed by a contemporary log-burning stove offers a welcoming retreat. At the front of the property, a sunroom serves as an additional comfortable seating area with delightful garden views.

On the first floor, you'll find four double bedrooms and a contemporary family bathroom with a luxurious freestanding double-ended tub and a Grohe shower with a wet-room screen. The principal bedroom, positioned at the front of the property, overlooks the gardens and boasts beautiful Junkers solid walnut flooring. It also features an en-suite shower room with an overhead rainfall shower and a separate rail-mounted shower head. The three additional bedrooms are equally charming, with two showcasing original fireplaces.
