Extensive stock‑rearing farm with two homes and huge acreage, sold in lots or whole.
Lotting option: buy in four lots or as the whole 173.49 acres
An extensive stock‑rearing holding on the edge of the Lake District, offered in four lots or as a whole. The sale includes a well‑presented three‑bed farmhouse (Lot 1) and a large five‑bed bungalow (Lot 2) with sweeping fell views, plus about 70.21 hectares (173.49 acres) of grazing, mowing and arable land. The steading has a substantial range of modern and traditional agricultural buildings, silage pit and cubicle housing suited to livestock enterprises.
This opportunity suits farmers or investors seeking immediate productive land and infrastructure. Lotting allows flexible purchase options — from a single farmhouse with acreage to the entire holding. Services include mains water and electricity, private sewerage, oil central heating to the bungalow and private water supplies across the holding. The land is predominantly Grade 3/4 and is entered into current environmental schemes (Mid‑Tier and SFI) — note SFI may not transfer.
Buyers should note several practical considerations: Swaledale View carries an agricultural occupancy restriction; both properties have modest EPC ratings (Farmhouse F, Bungalow E). Numerous agricultural roofs contain asbestos/fibre cement; some buildings are in varying condition though generally described as in good repair. Broadband is very slow and mobile signal only average — important for remote working or connectivity needs. Crops and silage on completion must be purchased, and the basic farm payment has been retained by the seller.
Overall this is a substantial rural estate with immediate farming capability, development potential for alternative rural uses (subject to consents), and flexible lotting that will appeal to active farmers, mixed‑use investors or those seeking a large, private countryside holding.
