A 288-acre mixed farm in County Durham with unrestricted right of access into a nearby industrial estate is now for sale.
Tursdale House Farm is a farm near Spennymoor and includes a farmhouse, adjoining barn and a recently renovated cottage.
The farm has productive Grade 3 arable land, permeant pasture and amenity woodland, all within a ring fence to about 288 acres.
