Playwell Road, Glanton, NE66

A traditional stone-built home, a private walled garden and almost 1,500 sq ft of space, set within one of Northumberland’s well-established rural villages. Playwell Road has all the character you would expect from its setting, but importantly, it is also a house that works exceptionally well for everyday life.

Glanton has long appealed to those looking for a village lifestyle while remaining within easy reach of Alnwick. Surrounded by beautiful Northumberland countryside, the village has its own shop and local amenities, with Alnwick a short drive away, providing a wider choice of independent shops, cafés, restaurants, schools and services. The coast, Cheviots and wider Northumberland landscape are all readily accessible, making this an excellent base from which to enjoy the county.

The house itself has an attractive traditional stone exterior, and behind it lies considerably more space than first impressions might suggest.

The accommodation is centred around an excellent living space. The living room extends to over 19ft and has the proportions to accommodate generous seating while retaining a comfortable feel. With a fireplace adding the kind of traditional focal point that feels entirely at home in a property of this style.

Alongside it, the kitchen and dining room is another substantial room. The Aga adds character and warmth, while the kitchen provides plenty of storage and preparation space. There is a separate utility room, a ground-floor WC and direct access through to the garage.

Upstairs, the proportions continue. Two of the three bedrooms are particularly generous doubles. The third is a good-sized room in its own right and could work equally well as a bedroom, home office or nursery. The three bedrooms are served by a generous family bathroom, with both a bath and separate shower.

Outside is one of the property's most appealing features. The enclosed garden sits behind traditional stone walls, creating a private space with lawn and established planting.

The garage is another real advantage. At over 16ft long, it offers useful parking and storage, particularly valuable for bikes and outdoor equipment.

Playwell Road brings together much of what makes a traditional village home so appealing, character, generous proportions and a wonderfully private garden.
