About this home
217.76 acres (88.12 hectares) of strategically well placed productive arable land with good road frontage.
Description
The land lies in green belt off the A194, yet only 2 miles from the junction between the A194 and the A1. There is therefore excellent access to the Tyne Tunnel (7 miles), the Metro Centre (8 miles), and Newcastle city centre as well as the International Airport (16 miles).
The Land A strategically well situated good sized commercial block of grade 3 arable land extending to 217acres (88ha) which should be of interest to farmers, long term investors, purchasers with nature and conservation interest or those seeking to establish woodland. A recent application for a solar farm on the land was refused at appeal, however the land is ideally situated should there be another opportunity.
Acreage: 217.76 Acres
