Garden House Farm offers a unique renovation and investment opportunity in a picturesque rural setting. This property includes a traditional farmhouse with two spacious reception rooms, each featuring an inviting ingle nook fireplace, and a kitchen diner on the ground floor. There are three generously sized double bedrooms on the first floor, including one with an en-suite bathroom, along with a family bathroom.
An adjoining cottage enhances the property's versatility, making it suitable for multi-generational living or as a potential income-generating rental unit. With appropriate planning permissions, this space could also be integrated into the main farmhouse, creating additional living area or enhancing its overall appeal. Moreover, one of the outbuildings has been thoughtfully converted into an office space, highlighting the property’s adaptability for modern needs.
The exterior features a large gravel driveway leading to a private courtyard and a south-facing garden that provides expansive views of the surrounding countryside. In addition to the main house and cottage, there are seven traditional outbuildings situated to the south and east of the residence, offering ample potential for redevelopment or storage.
Situated in the charming village of Acomb, residents can enjoy access to essential amenities such as schools, pubs, and local shops. The area is rich in outdoor activities with numerous walking paths and golf courses in close proximity. The property is well-connected by road; the nearby A69 allows for convenient travel to regional centers including Hexham and Newcastle city center. The Northumbrian coastline is easily reachable to the east while Carlisle and the scenic Lake District lie to the west.
Notably, this property is listed as Grade II due to its historic significance, adding character while providing potential tax benefits for renovations aimed at preserving its heritage. Furthermore, any future developments may be subject to overage clauses related to planning permissions that increase land value—an important consideration for investors looking to maximize returns.
The site is equipped with mains water, drainage, electricity, and oil-fired central heating. Given its unique features and location advantages combined with substantial renovation potential, Garden House Farm presents an intriguing opportunity for those looking to invest in real estate within this desirable region.
