The Property
Glenwhelt Coach House is a delightful renovated former coach house, full of character and original features mixed with contemporary refurbishments, to create a beautiful, unique property in this small and peaceful village. With spacious accommodation and lush, green gardens leading down to Tipalt Burn, Glenwhelt Coach House is in a wonderful situation in the heart of Hadrian’s Wall country. There is easy access to the main infrastructure of the region, yet the cottage is located amidst some of the most beautiful surroundings that Cumbria and Northumberland have to offer.

The front door opens into an amazing spacious entrance hall with original stone walls, exposed wooden beams and a stone spiral staircase down to the cellar. A window to the rear looks out onto the terrace, and the gardens and river beyond. Beside the front door is a smart, modern WC and a room that the current owners use as a study. Across the entrance hall, the sitting room is an inviting, homely space with beams, an impressive original stone fireplace with wood burning stove to one end and plenty of light coming in from windows on both sides including a floor-to-ceiling window with double shutters. There are double doors into the garden room to the rear. The garden room is a fabulous place to sit and enjoy uninterrupted views over the gardens to the river below and it has direct access onto the terrace too.

From the sitting room, a second hall houses the stairs leading up to the first floor, access to a stylish downstairs shower room and also a door to the front of the property, plus the entrance into the kitchen. The traditional farmhouse-style kitchen is complimented by modern units, an island bench with dining space, and integrated appliances including two ovens and an electric hob. There is plumbing for a dishwasher and space for a large fridge/freezer in the kitchen with the utility room providing further storage, laundry facilities, a separate pantry and access to outside.

To the first floor, the character and history of the property continues with more exposed stonework, vaulted ceilings, and beams in all four bedrooms. The largest bedroom is currently utilised as a second sitting room and has a door leading out and down the original external stone staircase of the coach house. The bedrooms are served by a contemporary bathroom with a separate bath and shower.

The cellar with a door into the garden, is an excellent storage space or it could be used to create a games room or snug.

Externally
To the front of Glenwhelt Coach House is a cobbled driveway and to the side is a paved area, both of which provide parking for several vehicles. The stunning gardens to the rear are on various levels with paths, steps and patios leading between the mature trees, shrubs, wild flowers and fruit trees to the river, and a useful workshop and wood storage area. Two wonderfully unique features of these gardens are the arches of the stone bridge over the river and a gate at the rear which joins a footpath leading to Hadrian’s Wall and Thirlwall Castle.
