Farms, Estates & Land for sale in Royalty Hall Steading, Norham, Berwick-Upon-Tweed, Northumberland -

Royalty Hall Steading comprises a partly lofted ‘u’-shaped range of predominantly stone constructed buildings. The steading benefits from detailed planning consent from Berwick-upon-Tweed Borough Council, permitting its conversion into 3 x three bedroom residential dwellings, with garaging, allocated parking and gardens.

The steading is situated in an attractive rural position within the Tweed Valley, set back from the public highway.  The attractive border village of Norham, (1 mile north) is a historic River Tweed crossing point and lies on the English bank of the Tweed, dominated by a Castle.  The village has a thriving community and supports a post office, butcher, village shop, first school and public houses.   The larger market towns of Berwick-upon-Tweed (9 miles east) and Kelso (17 miles west) provide a wide range of shopping, banking and educational facilities.  Berwick-upon-Tweed is also bypassed by the A1(T) and has a mainline railway station with both GNER and Virgin services, ensuring that the cities of Edinburgh to the north and Newcastle upon Tyne to the south, with their international airports, are both easily commutable by road and rail.

Planning

Detailed planning consent has been granted by Berwick-upon-Tweed Borough Council (Ref: 04/B/0935) dated 5th September 2005 for the conversion of the steading into three full time residential units (including the demolition of some buildings).  Communal parking and garaging will be provided to each unit, together with private gardens.
