Ring Fenced Pasture Farm with Outstanding Views
Description
Situation and Amenities
New Farm is situated within the Cranborne Chase AONB and boasts far reaching rural views across the Chalke Valley. It lies in an accessible position, close to the popular villages of Coombe Bissett, Stratford Tony, Bishopstone and Broad Chalke which offer local amenities including a number of highly regarded public houses. The Cathedral City of Salisbury lies just 6 miles north east of the property and offers a full range of facilities including schools, a hospital, supermarkets and a train station with direct services to London Waterloo in 1 hour 23 minutes.
Description
New Farm takes direct access from Blandford Road at Throope Down. The property is ring fenced, with a pair of semidetached bungalows and two former grain stores situated at its heart, in a private position away from the road and accessed via a farm track. The grassland gently slopes down away from the road, and the properties enjoy far reaching views across the Chalke Valley and Cranborne Chase AONB. A steep valley to the north of the Bungalows is designated as a Site of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI) for its botanically rich chalk grassland which supports several nationally rare plant and butterfly species. This area is subject to obligations under the Countryside Rights of Way Act 2000 (CRoW), more details are available from the selling agent.
The land is all set to permanent pasture, interspersed with trees / scrub and small areas of woodland. The fields are bound by livestock fencing with mature hedgerows in places and benefit from a water supply. The current owner has farmed with environmental objectives in mind and the land is entered into an Entry Level Plus Higher Level Stewardship Scheme which terminates in 2028. The land is well suited to conventional agriculture but also gives opportunity for an environmental project such as rewilding or tree planting.
New Farm Bungalows
The exact age of the bungalows is unknown but they are thought to date back to the 1930’s, of concrete block wall construction with a pebbledash render, under a tiled roof. No 1, the smaller of the two dwellings, has two bedrooms, kitchen, living room and a family bathroom. No 2 has three bedrooms, kitchen, living room and a family bathroom. Both dwellings benefit from double glazed windows, good sized gardens and a shared parking area with timber garage. The properties are let on Assured Shorthold Tenancies, notice has been served with vacant possession at 3/10/23. Subject to gaining the necessary planning consents the properties offer potential for redevelopment.
Farm Buildings
Situated at the end of the farm track, the two grain stores are of concrete block construction with fibre cement roof and cladding on concrete pads. Building 1 extends to approximately 4,000 sq. ft. whilst building 2 is slightly smaller at approximately 3,700 sq. ft. Both buildings are currently let out. Notice has been served with vacant possession at 3/10/23. Subject to gaining the necessary planning consents the grain stores may be suited to alternative uses.
