Lot 1 - 262.28 acres

Situation - Middle Horsleyhope Farm is situated between the market towns of Stanhope and Consett, in a productive agricultural area overlooking the picturesque Derwent Valley. The farm lies in an accessible location with direct access to the A68. It is approached over a privately owned, gated access road providing an enviable element of rural seclusion. Both Stanhope and Consett have a good local range of shops and services with primary and secondary schools although with a very different feel. Stanhope is rural and scenic with small town charm and lies on the Weardale Way while Consett is a larger town with an industrial past. The City of Durham is only 16 miles away offering a wider range of amenities and cultural opportunities.

Description - Lot 1 - Middle Horsleyhope Farm is a substantial and desirable livestock farm with a characterful, two-storey, stone-built farmhouse, a range of modern livestock buildings, useful traditional stone buildings and land extending in all to about 262.28 acres.

Lot 1 is divided from Lot 2 by the Healeyfield Lane.

The Farmhouse - The farmhouse is a detached, traditional two story house set in a decent area of garden ground.

It sits in an elevated position with far reaching views overlooking rolling countryside and the neighbouring grouse moor of Muggleswick. It retains several original and characterful features and would now benefit from a programme of refurbishment and modernisation.

The accommodation is over two floors providing bright and spacious accommodation, comprising:

Ground floor: Kitchen, dining room, sitting room, utility, pantry, boot room, toilet, storerooms

First floor: Four bedrooms and family bathroom
