Description
Witton Hall Farm is a beautifully situated commercial arable farm located just 4 miles north-west of Durham city and 7 miles south of Chester-Le-Street. The farm boasts an excellent range of modern farm buildings, including approximately 6,000 tonnes of grain storage, and is surrounded by attractive natural countryside with a meandering River Browney and well-established woodlands. The 454-acre farm is mainly under arable production, with a mix of level and gently sloping land, and is currently entered into an SFI scheme and a mid-tier stewardship scheme. The farm also features 39 acres of grassland and a former compound site owned by Northumbrian Water, which may be available to the purchaser. With its diverse range of buildings and land, Witton Hall Farm offers a rare opportunity to acquire a large commercial farming opportunity in a private and accessible location.
