Riding Farm

Mileages: Corbridge – 3 miles, Hexham - 6 miles, Newcastle upon Tyne – 17 milesOffers are invited for this exciting development opportunity on a prime site within the highly sought after Tyne Valley village of Riding MillFull Planning and Listed Building permission (reference: 22/01723/FUL) has been granted for a site to enable the creation of 3 dwellings, each with their own character and individual access. The site with detailed consent presents as a handcrafted development in a first class and beautiful part of rural, yet convenient Northumberland.The site currently comprises a period farmhouse for redevelopment and a range of appealing traditional outbuildings for conversion and development into beautiful high value homes. Careful consideration has been given in the design stage to the layout of the site which consists of three distinct units. Special focus has been allocated to the nature of how these buildings and the outside space for each unit will relate to the other after conversion, specifically taking into consideration access, privacy and traffic or circulation through the site.• Individual accesses to the new units are independent of each other, thereby increasing value to the plots and boosting saleability.• The entrance arrangement avoids infringement of privacy • The buildability of the units is easier since they have their own dedicated entrance. Each unit can be developed separately and presumably if need be, sold separately. • By splitting the accesses and each unit having its own, means a private access to each front door. • The central part of the site can be an attractive landscaped courtyard, without cars passing neighbouring front doors and the principal elevations whilst maintaining an attractive addition to the village street scene • Strong relationship between the houses and each of their adjacent outdoor spaces and the creation of 3 private gardens, each with their own character and environmental benefits.• An attractive landscaped setting for the Farmhouse and traditional outbuildings by firmly maintaining the farmyard grouping.The detailed planning consent allows for the following accommodation:The Farmhouse – 3 Bedrooms | Living Room | Kitchen | Utility | Bathroom | Storage Independent parking for 2 cars | Garden | Estimate About 975 sq ft (90 sq m) with some services connectedThe Gin Gan - 4 Bedrooms | 3 bathrooms (3 en suite)| Luxury living kitchen and dining area | family room | Entertainment suite| Striking living room in Gin Gan| Utility | Independent parking for 4+ cars | Pretty garden area | Paved courtyard garden | About 2,930 Sq Ft (272 sq m)The Cart Shed - 4 Bedrooms | 3 bedrooms (2 en suite) | Impressive dining kitchen | Living Room | Snug/home working | Courtyard garden | Greenhouse | Independent parking for 3 cars | About 2,160 Sq Ft (200 sq m)Local informationRiding Mill is a popular commuter village in the Tyne Valley.
