Located on the fringe of Morwick Farm Dairy and Acklington Village, surrounded by rolling fields, Phoebe’s Plaice is a traditionally constructed, 3,039 sq ft, sandstone, four bedroom one and a half story, detached home. Constructed in 2019 as the final property on our best selling development of all time, Cavil Head Farm.

A balanced mix of heritage features and contemporary design, effortless panache and inviting interiors, this country classic radiates authenticity and style. This is a house for all seasons, located in  a beautiful place, surrounded by nature, as well as being within easy reach of the iconic Northumberland coast. The allure of the landscape and the low impact, classic design, is an enviable package we think will be difficult to match.

What we love about Phoebe’s Place and Cavil Head Farm

There’s nothing we don’t love about Phoebe’s Plaice. It really has it all when it comes to semi-rural luxury. The majority of the accommodation is located on the ground floor, making this a flexible proposition for those seeking single storey living space. The first floor is an added bonus with two fabulous bedrooms, (one could be used as a reception room) and a spa style full bathroom suite, possible living quarters for family or friends.

We love the semi rural location with it being so close the coast and what’s not to love about uninterrupted country views. Not far from the small village of Acklington, there are many activities and groups held locally, providing a real sense of community. Warkworth is a near neighbour where the main street is lined with galleries, a Post Office, inns, restaurants and gift shops to suit all tastes and the trendy harbour town of Amble is 4 miles away. This really ticks the location box.
