Property in Brief
Sawmill | Outbuildings | Around 0.7 Acres in All

The Property
Once a traditional sawmill, the site now comprises a range of agricultural outbuildings situated in the scenic Tyne Valley countryside. Covering approximately 0.7 acres, this development site presents a promising opportunity in a picturesque rural setting, with convenient access to nearby regional centres.

Planning permission has been granted for the demolition of the existing buildings and the conversion and extension of the existing sawmill building into a four-bedroom dwelling. CGI images provide an impression of a striking contemporary home set amidst stretching woodland and Northumbrian countryside. Initial plans from the architect are available for download as a proposed illustration of the dwelling.

The plot also includes a second sizable building, which, while not eligible for residential conversion, offers versatile potential for various uses. It could serve as a spacious garage, a home office, a creative studio, or even be adapted for private stabling/equestrian facilities.

Agents Note
1.5 acres of land is potentially available through separate negotiation, ideal for accommodating a couple of horses.
