5 bedroom semi-detached house for sale

Productive arable farmland with cottages and traditional farm buildings Description FARMLAND The land extends in total to approximately 367.80 acres (147.07 hectares) and forms a continuous, largely arable ring fenced block with good internal access tracks. The farmland within Lot Two comprises 285.61 acres (115.58 hectares) of arable land and 53.39 acres (21.61 hectares) of pasture, plus woodland and miscellaneous areas of residential, buildings and tracks. According to the Provisional Agricultural Land Classification, the holding is predominantly Grade 2, with an area of Grade 3 land to the southeast, which comprises the principal block of pasture. The soils across the holding are of the Ruskington soil series, comprising freely draining, lime‐rich loamy soils over chalk or limestone. They are very easily workable and well suited to both spring and autumn‐sown cereals, as well as a range of other combinable crops and grass. The farm has been managed in‐hand by the vendor under a typical arable rotation, incorporating winter cover crops as part of ongoing soil management. Field parcels are of an efficient workable size and well laid out for modern farming practices. The holding is served by a good network of internal tracks. There are areas of tree planting, extending to 21.72 acres, which are now becoming established under an ongoing management plan. The sloping pasture to the south has been managed under a grazing licence by a reputable local individual, who runs sheep on the land at various points throughout the year. PARKLAND Lot One includes 12.07 acres of pasture surrounding Sheffield House Farmhouse and extending to the south. To the south of Sheffield House Farm lies a single pasture field extending to 10.44 acres, providing control over the immediate outlook from the house and offering a sizeable area suitable for a range of future uses, including private amenity space or alternative uses such as for equestrian purposes.

TRADITIONAL BUILDINGS A substantial range of traditional stone farm buildings are situated to the north‐east of Sheffield House Farmhouse. The buildings are arranged in an E‐shaped configuration beneath pantile roofs, forming two enclosed and gated courtyards that provide practical, sheltered external areas to either side. The western part of the range has historically been used for general storage and as a gamekeeper’s mess room. To the east and rear, sections of the buildings have been let for informal commercial use by the current tenant for a number of years. In addition to the main range, a standalone stone cart store and small shed are located to the north of the traditional buildings. These traditional structures offer clear potential for conversion or redevelopment, subject to all necessary consents.
