RavenstoneOriginally built in 1877, Ravenstone is a truly impressive example of Victorian architecture. The integrity of this elegant home is underpinned by the exceptional quality inside and out. The house benefits from a complete renovation programme by the current owners.

The formal rooms such as the entrance hall, with beautiful wooden floor, drawing room and dining room all boast elegant proportions and close to 3-metre ceiling heights. The kitchen/breakfast room and orangery combine to create an informal social hub that places family living at its centre. The kitchen has been designed with the serious chef in mind and is fitted with bespoke, hand-painted units arranged around a central island with gas fired Aga and Neff oven. The ground floor rooms benefit from a Lutron lighting system.

The service areas are at the rear of the kitchen and are comprised of a cloakroom and utility room, access to the double garage and a second staircase leading up to the first floor. On this first floor is a media and music room.

The basement consists of a gym, sauna and shower/wc facilities and a large well lit office/chill zone with French doors opening out onto the garden. There is also an extensive wine cellar, storage, gardener’s store and wc.

Stairs rise to the first floor landing with its wonderful wooden flooring. The master suite has a dressing room and beautifully appointed and private marble bathroom. The five remaining bedrooms have either ensuite, Jack and Jill or private bathroom facilities

Gardens and GroundsRavenstone is approached along a drive flanked by mature Redwoods. The house is within about 4.49 acres of beautifully manicured grounds. The gardens have a distinctly classical feel and have been cleverly divided into upper and lower terraces, creating a variety of secluded sitting areas.

Carefully conceived paths sometimes fringed by mature trees, shrubs or box hedging, allow all aspects of the garden to be explored fully. These take in the rose garden, the kitchen garden and greenhouses, an all weather tennis court and the charming Grade II listed stable with ornamental dovecote above. Above the main house is a pony paddock.

Location Ravenstone is located less than a mile from the pretty market town of Corbridge, once the most northerly town within the Roman Empire. Amenities include attractive architecture, a thriving art scene, busy markets, eclectic artisan shops, charming eateries and friendly pubs. Corbridge also falls within the catchment of a number of excellent schools and puts some of Northumberland’s finest attractions within reach.
