Full Reserved Matters approval for six detached new homes (Ref: 24/02362/REM)
Grade II farmhouse (c.1716) with conversion potential to 2 or 4 units

High‑quality specified materials: stone, slate, zinc standing seam cladding
S106 agreed; planning obligations will affect delivery costs and timing
Listed status increases conservation complexity and specialist costs
Main house: 8 bedrooms, 5 receptions, only 2 large family bathrooms
External walls likely uninsulated; thermal upgrades and glazing dates unknown
This rare 2.85‑acre site combines an 18th‑century Grade II farmhouse and full reserved matters approval for six detached, architect-designed new homes. The consented scheme uses high‑quality materials—natural stone, slate and zinc—and mirrors the original steading, offering strong GDV uplift for a sympathetic, premium development in a peaceful rural setting between Bedlington and Nedderton.
The farmhouse (c.1716) adds further value through permitted heritage conversion potential into two dwellings or four apartments, subject to planning. The overall plot, substantial room count and formal garden setting suit a mixed offer: developers seeking a high‑margin rural scheme or buyers wanting a large family home with long-term improvement upside.
Buyers should note material constraints: listed‑building status will add complexity, specialist conservation works and likely higher build costs. The main house has limited bathrooms for its size and external stone walls are assumed uninsulated, which will require thermal upgrading. Broadband is average and the EPC is D.
In short, the site offers exceptional scope for value creation through the approved new‑builds and listed conversion, balanced by the practical realities of heritage works, upgrade costs and delivery obligations tied to the S106 agreement. This is a strategic acquisition for experienced developers or owner‑occupiers prepared to manage conservation requirements.
