A popular County Durham garden centre and plant nursery with a three-bedroom house, modern buildings, retail space and the potential for equestrian development, is up for sale for £975,000.
New Row Farm, located between Wolsingham and Tow Law, could provide scope for a wide range of potential farm business opportunities, including a touring caravan site, farm shop/café or race yard facilities, according to sellers GSC Grays.
John Coleman, head of farm and land sales at GSC Grays said: “This is currently a successful local plant nursery business which is being sold following a restructure of the family business assets.
Here are some photos of New Row Farm:
"It has an excellent infrastructure to support such a business enterprise which also lends itself to a wide variety of other rural business uses or as an equestrian set up. We are expecting considerable interest in New Row Farm.”
The farm extends to just under 20 aces and comprises a stone-built farmhouse, various traditional stone buildings, a yard and other buildings associated with the running of a commercial/retail plant nursery business.
There are about 9.7 acres of grassland paddocks, while the commercial nursery area benefits from a water irrigation system that is supplied by a private spring supply.
The detached, two-storey farmhouse has three reception rooms and three bedrooms.
A courtyard to the rear is enclosed on three sides adjoining a single-storey link building and a two-storey stone barn which incorporates the farm office, garaging and storage.
The house has its own, private tarmac drive leading directly to the public road but also has the benefit of use of the commercial farm road.
