Description
Set in approximately 22 acres of scenic and historic countryside, Higher Castleshaw Farm offers a rare opportunity to acquire a piece of Saddleworth's heritage. Nestled in the heart of Castleshaw, this elevated position boasts breathtaking views across the valley, making it a truly special and tranquil location.
A short distance from the Castleshaw Roman Fort, the site sits in an area of significant archaeological and historical interest. The Roman fort, fortlet, and surrounding civilian settlement – uncovered as recently as the 1990s – are designated scheduled monuments, recognised as nationally important and protected for their historic value.
The property includes a collection of Grade II listed stone buildings, comprising a traditional farmhouse, two cottages, and a substantial stone barn. While all currently stand in a derelict condition, they offer tremendous potential for sympathetic restoration and redevelopment, subject to the necessary consents.
This is a rare and exciting opportunity for a buyer seeking a project with historical significance, stunning surroundings, and the chance to create something truly unique in one of Saddleworth's most picturesque and culturally rich settings.
