Set on about 13 acres, Garth House is a traditional four-bedroom farmhouse with far-reaching views across South Durham. The house offers generous living space over two storeys, including a sitting room, dining room, kitchen, conservatory and a useful entrance porch — ideal for family life or those seeking a rural base.
The land includes a range of farm buildings and large paddocks, presenting several options: keep as productive grazing, hobby farming, or convert buildings subject to planning. The plot is a major asset for buyers wanting privacy, outdoor scope and a sense of seclusion while remaining close to village amenities.
Practical features include gas-fired central heating, double glazing and a single garage with driveway parking. Notable drawbacks are the single family bathroom for four bedrooms and very slow broadband, which may affect home-working. Some outbuildings and areas of the property will need repair or updating, offering scope for improvement rather than a turnkey move-in.
This property will suit families or buyers seeking a countryside lifestyle with room to expand or adapt. The combination of plot size, rural outlook and usable buildings creates clear long-term potential, but purchasers should budget for refurbishment work and connectivity upgrades.
