A rare smallholding offering set in around 5.37 acres of grassland with far-reaching countryside views, a detached farmhouse and a timber-clad general-purpose barn. The plot suits buyers seeking space, privacy and small-scale agricultural or equestrian use, with good road links to Darlington, Stockton and the A1 corridors.
The farmhouse benefits from a 4 kW south-facing solar array that reduces running costs and contributes to hot water, an integrated double garage, generous lawned gardens and useful outbuilding storage. Accommodation is described in the particulars as spacious with multiple reception rooms and principal bedroom suites; the EPC is C and council tax is Band C.
Important restrictions and practical notes: the property is sold subject to an agricultural occupancy condition limiting who may legally occupy the dwelling. Broadband speeds are reported as slow. Local services are rural — Bishopton village provides a primary school and local amenities, while larger centres are within reasonable driving distance.
This is a lifestyle or smallholding purchase rather than a typical commuter home: it offers renewable-energy savings, land for livestock or cultivation, and a detached setting, but prospective buyers should confirm occupancy eligibility, check broadband needs, and note the recorded local crime level before viewing.
