A County Durham farm which has been in the same family for six generations has been put up for sale with a guide price of £1.8m.
Whiley Hill Farm, near the medieval village of Coatham Mundeville, just east of Teesdale, is a mixed-use farm with a range of modern and traditional farm buildings and arable and grassland extending to about 129.28 acres.
It has a four-bedroom farmhouse and bungalow.
John Coleman, head of farm agency, GSC Grays said: “Whiley Hill Farm is brought to the market for the first time since 1850 and has served the family well over six generations.
“It’s a good all round mixed-use farm, well located and easily accessible, with two properties including a traditional farmhouse and a three-bedroom bungalow, which could lend itself to multi-generational family living.
“The property also offers exciting development potential, benefits from an identified solar site and will be offered for sale as a whole or in two lots.”
Whiley Hill Farm is to the south of the new Forest Park Development, the expanding Heighington Industrial Estate and the Hitachi Rail plant, offering scope for a range of future development opportunities.
The farmhouse is attached to a former mill and a range of courtyard buildings offering potential to extend into, subject to planning approval.
The Oaks is a detached bungalow, subject to an agricultural occupancy restriction, set away from the farmyard within its own spacious garden plot.
The farm buildings include four cattle courts, grain store, general purpose shed, two open-fronted pole barns and feed silo.
Whiley Hill Farm is being offered for sale as a whole or in two lots through GSC Grays Farm Agency. For more, contact 01748 829203 or visit gscgrays.co.uk
