Description
Located in the picturesque village of Ushaw Moor, County Durham, Broomhall Farm is an exceptional period residence dating back to the 1450s. Rich in heritage and charm, this beautifully restored farmhouse has been thoughtfully extended and modernised, combining centuries-old character with contemporary luxury. Offering over 2,400 sq. ft. of living space, the property now boasts four spacious bedrooms, making it ideal for family living or hosting guests in style.
The home’s striking stone exterior hints at its historic roots, while the interior blends original features with elegant modern design. A stunning sitting room with a traditional stone fireplace sets the tone, while the impressive conservatory extension at the rear provides a sun-filled space that opens seamlessly onto a meticulously landscaped garden—ideal for relaxing or entertaining.
The heart of the home is the expansive kitchen and breakfast room, equipped to a high specification with a premium Sub-Zero refrigerator, two integrated dishwasher drawers, and a central island for casual dining. Every bathroom in the house features sleek, high-quality Porcelanosa tiling, adding a polished, contemporary edge to the home’s classic foundation.
Upstairs, the four bedrooms are generously proportioned, including a luxurious principal suite with a Porcelanosa-tiled en-suite bathroom. A versatile fourth bedroom could also function as a dressing room, study, or nursery depending on your needs, providing flexibility alongside comfort.
Outside, the rear garden is a standout feature, offering tiered stonework, ornate statuary, and lush hedging that ensures privacy and tranquillity. The aerial view reveals the full scale of the property and its grounds, including a spacious patio area perfect for outdoor dining and summer gatherings.

By setting a proxy bid, the system will automatically bid on your behalf to maintain your position as the highest bidder, up to your proxy bid amount. If you are outbid, you will be notified via email so you can opt to increase your bid if you so choose.
If two of more users place identical bids, the bid that was placed first takes precedence, and this includes proxy bids.
Another bidder placed an automatic proxy bid greater or equal to the bid you have just placed. You will need to bid again to stand a chance of winning.
