13 bedroom detached house for sale

A rare opportunity to acquire a substantial and highly versatile country estate extending to approximately 9.6 acres, set on the edge of the North Pennines National Landscape and enjoying far-reaching views across open countryside. Comprising four beautifully converted dwellings with a combined total of 13 bedrooms, this impressive holding offers immediate income potential alongside significant scope for further development. The properties are presented to an excellent standard throughout and are readily suited to use as high-quality holiday lets or short-term accommodation, with established infrastructure already in place. The wider estate has previously supported glamping accommodation, with serviced pitches and utilities available, creating an attractive foundation for a lifestyle-led hospitality business. In addition, the substantial 30m x 10m block-built barn offers clear potential for alternative commercial use, including conversion to an events or wedding venue, subject to the necessary consents. The land extends to approximately 8.5 acres of level grazing, making the property equally appealing to equestrian buyers or those seeking a smallholding, with ample space for paddocks, further facilities or diversification. Each of the four dwellings has been thoughtfully restored, retaining character features while incorporating modern finishes. The layout of the estate provides a strong degree of privacy and flexibility, well suited to owner-occupiers operating a business on site or investors seeking multiple income streams from a single acquisition. Further enhancing the appeal is extensive parking provision, including a newly constructed quadruple garage and generous hardstanding areas, ensuring the site can comfortably accommodate both residents and guests. Despite its peaceful rural setting, the estate remains conveniently positioned within reach of Durham, Newcastle and the wider region. Opportunities of this scale, flexibility and potential are seldom available, offering buyers the chance to secure a lifestyle asset with genuine long-term commercial prospects. All development and change of use subject to the necessary planning consents.
