Situated on the beautiful Cumbrian-Northumbrian border, this well-positioned upland farm presents a significant investment opportunity. Gapshield, an expansive livestock farm, features a historical five-bedroom farmhouse, numerous traditional and modern agricultural structures, and ample land spanning approximately 198.29 acres. The farmhouse itself, built in the 1860s, retains period features such as traditional fireplaces and timber beams but is in need of some modernization to unlock its full potential as a family residence.
The traditional buildings surrounding the farmhouse offer versatile usage possibilities for further development—whether that be transforming them into additional residential properties, holiday rentals or office space (subject to necessary planning consents). The modern agricultural buildings enhance operational efficiency and could also serve new purposes given their substantial scale and layout.
With excellent access to road networks and expansive views across rolling countryside, along with potential future income from possible wind energy projects in the vicinity, Gapshield is not just a home; it’s an opportunity ripe for renovation and diversification in agricultural or eco-friendly ventures. This property stands out due to its location and versatile potential across agriculture, leisure, and environmental restoration.
