There is a railway station at Seaton Carew 4 miles to the east and the East Coast mainline station at Darlington is 23 miles away.

Description
Springwell House and Farm as a whole extends to approximately 106 acres lying within a ringfence approached along private access road. The property as a whole includes the substantial and imposing Springwell House which was built for the vendors family in 1994 and occupies an outstanding position within landscape gardens and overlooking the feature pond. The house has well-proportioned rooms attracting a lot of natural light and benefits from an impressive leisure wing with indoor swimming pool. Springwell House set in gardens, grounds and potential paddocks of 7.24 acres is available for sale on its own as lot 1.
For those seeking a farm and equestrian facilities or even storage the adjacent Springwell Farm provides a rare opportunity in the area. Separate access leads to a modernised two bedroom cottage with adjacent offices having potential to extend the accommodation. There are two well-built stable yards, outdoor arena, extensive range of storage buildings and level grazing land with paddocks extending to a further 98.73 acres.
