Mickleton is a popular village with a strong and welcoming community, surrounded by beautiful countryside and offering a wonderful selection of walks directly from the village. The village benefits from a local pub, petrol station and an active community hall, while the surrounding area lies within the North Pennines Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and includes a Site of Special Scientific Interest.
For a wider range of amenities, the nearby market town of Barnard Castle and the village of Middleton-in-Teesdale offer a good selection of shops, pubs, restaurants, schools and medical facilities. The area also enjoys excellent transport links, with convenient access to the A66, A1 and M6, together with railway stations at Kirkby Stephen and Darlington.
Built in the 1990s, The Poplars offers spacious and versatile accommodation arranged over two floors, with a practical layout ideally suited to family life.

The front garden is well screened by established hedging, while the enclosed rear garden has been thoughtfully landscaped to provide a combination of patio, lawn and a productive vegetable plot.

Leasehold
Most properties in this area, including The Poplars, are held under the historic Mickleton Lease — a 1,000-year lease signed in 1607 and running until 2607.
It carries no notable rights, obligations, ground rents, or charges, and many have since converted to a form of freehold. The lease poses no issues for mortgages or insurance and forms part of the historic Mickleton Manor records dating back to the early 1600s.
