Surrounded by greenery and filled with wildlife, the River Wansbeck is a lovely waterway to walk along in Northumberland – and luckily, this home is right next to it. Cross the nearby bridge to reach Morpeth, a market town that dates back as far as the Neolithic period. The historic sandstone buildings of Morpeth’s Clock Tower, station and Chantry are well worth a trip. While you’re in town, why not pick up some fresh produce to cook in the sleek kitchen of this home, with its shiny white cabinets and integrated appliances. Afterwards, cosy up on the L-shaped sofa in front of a film on the fifty-inch Smart TV.
