Viewing Essential

Ideal for multigenerational family living or just a single family with horses, as well as a development opportunity for barn conversions and large sheds that are purpose built for a farming style business.

Rarely does such an opportunity arise to purchase such a versatile property. Rainton Grange Farm comprises the original farmhouse dating back to the 1800's, as well as an attached two bedroomed annexe, a variety of garages, outbuildings, storage areas and a stable block which has been granted outline planning to be converted into two separate residential dwellings. There is additional formal gardens to the house and annexe, as well as a 1.75 acre paddock which could be used for horses.

Accessed up a long driveway to electric gates providing a good level of privacy and security opening to a large area of hard standing ideal for parking.

Farmhouse

The original farmhouse comprises a substantial open plan lounge/diner which has triple aspect orientations inviting in huge amounts of light, as well as central shared fires which open to both the lounge and the dining areas. There is an additional family room, study and conservatory, as well as a fully refitted kitchen/breakfast room with a good range of floor and wall units with integrated appliances, central feature island and bi-fold doors opening onto the private rear garden. There is also a utility room and cloakroom. To the first floor there are four bedrooms, as well as a landing area which could be used as an office, and a shower room as well as an additional family bathroom.

Annexe

The self contained annexe can be accessed either through the main house or by its independent front door and has a living room with bi-folding doors opening onto the rear garden, kitchen with a range of floor and wall units and appliances, two bedrooms and a bathroom. This unit has the potential for significant rental income.

Attached to the house and annexe are the purpose built oversized double garages with insulated electric roller doors, lighting, water, EV charger and power, as well as an additional workshop which is currently used as a general purpose workshop/project area and has 3 phase power, a water supply and excellent lighting.

Development Potential:

The stables are of a good size and have outline planning permission for conversion into two additional dwellings. Further information can be provided upon request.

There are two extremely large outbuildings with three phase electric. The buildings are 440 square meters, 207 square meters and 63 square meters, as well as an expansive area of hard standing and a large lean-to shed providing vehicle storage.

The whole plot extends to approximately 3.5 acres which includes the 1.75 acre paddock which would be ideal for a family looking to keep horses. This field also has the potential for agricultural/horticultural use or as a hay/flower meadow.

Middle Rainton occupies a picturesque rural setting and yet lies adjacent to the A(690) Durham to Sunderland Highway, which in turn offers access to the A1(M) Motorway Interchange at Carrville and is therefore an ideal commuter base. It also lies close to East and West Rainton where there are a range of local shops and amenities available, with more comprehensive shopping and recreational facilities available in nearby Durham City Centre, which lies approximately 5 miles distant.
