Summary - Land To The North of Rainy Close, Westgate DL13 1SH
1 bed 1 bath Land
Secluded freehold plot in protected AONB setting with historic bridge nearby.
Approximately 1.74 acres (0.7 hectares) freehold
A rare freehold parcel of amenity land extending to approximately 1.74 acres (0.7 hectares) with direct river frontage and a historic stone-arch bridge nearby. Set within the Westgate Conservation Area and the North Pennines AONB/UNESCO GeoPark, the site offers high landscape quality and strong natural character ideal for conservation, private recreation or low-impact rural uses.
The plot benefits from a natural water supply, excellent mobile signal and inclusion of any owned sporting rights. There is no flood risk recorded and the land lies in a quiet village setting with basic local amenities and a good primary school within reach.
Buyers should note material constraints: mines and minerals are reserved to a third party and are not included; a public footpath crosses the eastern boundary; broadband to the site is understood to be slow; and the land falls within conservation and AONB designations that will significantly limit development potential. Prospective purchasers must satisfy themselves on access, boundaries and permitted uses with the local planning authority.
Offered freehold with a guide price of £15,575, this plot suits those seeking a scenic, low-intensity holding or a conservation-minded investment rather than immediate development. Viewings are by appointment and buyers will need to comply with money-laundering documentation if successful.
