Summary - Allans Hill House, Holwick, Middleton-in-Teesdale DL12 0NW
3 bed 1 bath Character Property
Panoramic rural smallholding with wide development potential and generous outbuildings.
- Three-bedroom farmhouse plus separate one-bedroom cottage
A rare smallholding set in the remote hamlet of Holwick, offering a three-bedroom farmhouse plus a separate one-bedroom cottage and about 2.03 acres of sound grassland. The site includes a double garage, workshop, range of stores and an attached stone byre — ideal for practical storage, hobby farming or conversion subject to consents. The location delivers exceptional panoramic views front and back and very low local crime, giving genuine rural seclusion.
Both dwellings require updating and modernisation, presenting clear renovation potential for a single extended home or a small rental/ancillary-let arrangement. Key practical facts: oil-fired boiler and radiators, double glazing of unknown age, granite walls likely uninsulated, and very slow broadband. These factors affect running costs and refurbishment scope and should be budgeted for before purchase.
The plot is unusually large for a hamlet property, with separate pasture included and useful outbuildings that suit agricultural or leisure uses. Access to Middleton-in-Teesdale (about three miles) provides basic services and schools. This home will suit buyers seeking a characterful project in a peaceful countryside setting, or investors looking for a smallholding with conversion potential; it is less suitable for those needing fast internet, modern finish, or immediate turnkey living.
