Alnham lies at the foot of the Cheviot Hills, close to where the River Aln rises, in one of the most remote corners of Northumberland.
Alnham is a scattering of farms and homes rather than a village street, so sales are rare and every one is different: stone farmhouses, cottages and properties with land.
A valuation here draws on sales across the upper Coquet and Aln valleys.
For local sold prices and trends, see our Rothbury house prices report, browse our properties for sale or register your search to hear about Alnham homes before they reach the portals.
The nearest first schools are in the villages down the valley, with middle and high schools in Rothbury and Alnwick.
Single-track lanes lead down to Whittingham and the A697. Rothbury and Alnwick are both around 20 to 30 minutes by car.
All shopping and services are in Rothbury or Alnwick, so this is a place for people who are happy to drive.
Alnham is a starting point for walks into the Cheviots, including the old drove route known as Salter’s Road.
Alnham is for those who want the hills, the quiet and dark skies above everything else.
