Tilery Cottage offers a unique ‘lifestyle’ opportunity in Warkworth, located towards the western edge of the village with adjacent fields and a lovely rural aspect. The three bedroom cottage has been substantially extended from the original cottage a number of years ago, creating versatile accommodation over two floors with more recent work to include the completion of the detached garage/workshop, now offering a great space for a variety of uses (subject to normal planning consents and restrictive covenants). The cottage, in the last four years, has been redecorated and carpeted throughout, with new cabinets and worktops added to the family kitchen/breakfast room, and a new cast iron wood burning stove added to the sitting room. Externally, there has been further planting within the garden, new fencing to the boundary, and a Greenhouse added within the vegetable garden.
