A SUPERB RESIDENTIAL, LIFESTYLE OR EQUESTRIAN PROPERTY IN AN OUTSTANDING AND ACCESSIBLE LOCATION IN THE TYNE VALLEY.
Description
The sale of Standwell offers an increasingly rare opportunity to purchase a compact residential estate in an outstanding yet accessible location on the north side of the Tyne Valley. For residential buyers there is an attractive and well positioned family house with well proportioned south facing reception rooms, 5 first floor bedrooms and 3 additional attic rooms. There are three cottages and potential for conversion of the traditional buildings. There is a large range of farm buildings providing commercial storage opportunities in addition to a livery enterprise. The land lies within a ring fence and has good field access. There is currently approximately 41 acres under arable production, together with 32 acres of productive permanent pasture.
In our opinion it is a combination of the accessible location and quality of the principal house together with the land, buildings and other income generating opportunities which makes Standwell such a rare property.
Location and Situation
The farm lies in open and unspoilt countryside to the north side of the Military Road and the hamlet of Harlow Hill. The B6318 leads to Heddon-on-the-Wall where the A69 is joined. The property lies midway (12 miles) between the market town of Hexham and Newcastle railway station. The pretty, small town of Corbridge lies only 6 miles to the south. The farm is only 8 miles from the A1 and 10 miles from Newcastle International Airport providing excellent access to the main communications network. The farm is also well situated for gaining access to the Northumberland National Park and Kielder Forest and is only a few hundred yards north of Hadrians Wall.
