Residential farm offers unspoilt charm

The sale of Beech Grove Farm offers a rare opportunity to acquire a charming residential farm located in a highly convenient location close to Chester le Street (5 miles), Durham City (8 miles) and Newcastle (14 miles).

The farm stands in glorious rolling countryside with easily accessed land in two blocks with a good range of modern farm buildings. Lying at the heart of the farm is a substantial stone built Georgian house offering superb potential to create a stunning family home. The house has undergone some updating in recent years to include damp proofing and re-wiring but requires further modernisation.

There are currently three good sized ground floor reception rooms together with a large kitchen/ breakfast room, boot room, utility room and wc. Four double bedrooms, family bathroom with wc and linen room on the first floor.

The productive land is divided into two blocks and comprises some good (grade 3) arable land (146 acres) with some pasture and meadow land (29 acres).

Iain Welsh at Smiths Gore’s Darlington Office (01325 370500) says:

“Whilst there are currently several farms on the market in County Durham, Beech Grove is the only one with an attractive period house which will appeal to private individuals, investors and farming buyers alike. With land values increasing dramatically over the last year we believe our competitive guide price of £1,250,000 should generate some high levels of interest”

Beech Grove is for sale by Private Treaty with a guide price of offers in excess of £1,250,000 for the whole but is available in two lots.

Lot 1 - Farmhouse, buildings and 109 acres
Lot 2 - 65 acres of mainly arable land
