Brunton Burn
From the immaculate rear courtyard, steps from the front door lead to the light, bright and beautifully-presented open-plan kitchen and living space. The overall feel is sophisticated yet homely; elegant neutrals are livened up with splashes of seaside blues and warm reds from cosy blankets, antique rugs and eye-catching original artwork from local artists. Floor to ceiling windows make the most of fabulous views over the mill race and burn.
At one end of the room the extensively equipped kitchen is a cook's delight. A central dining table and chairs guarantee lazy breakfasts spent admiring the view and the cosy seating area offers the best of all worlds with French doors to let in the fresh summer air and a state-of-the-art wood burner for the cooler months.
Step out of the floor to ceiling patio doors onto the terrace; a south-facing sun trap with outside furniture and glorious views over the mill race and burn, across to Brunton Lake and open fields to a distant view of Beadnell Bay beyond.
