Description
Troutbeck Farm
Troutbeck and Stockdale Hall farms are set in attractive rolling countryside between the villages of Corby Hill and Heads Nook, east of Carlisle and close to the A69 and M6 for wider connectivity. The sale of these two farms is a rare opportunity to acquire land holdings of such scale in Cumbria with potential for further development in the direction of a purchaser’s choosing.
Troutbeck Farmhouse
Troutbeck farmhouse is a traditional stone built property with a slate roof and is part rendered. Accommodation includes a glazed entrance hall with utility room, WC and wash basin. The kitchen has a range of fitted units, granite floor and work surfaces with integrated cooker and hob. There is a dining room with an open fire, living room with traditional fireplace, porch and a laundry room. First floor accommodation extends to three large bedrooms together with a substantial bathroom complete with shower, bath, double washbasin vanity unit, WC and bidet. The principal bedroom has a WC and wash basin located in a small room above the porch.
The farmhouse has a substantial, wrought iron gated entrance with estate style railing and substantial tarmacadam parking area. There is a small courtyard garden to the west enclosed by a stone wall and closed board timber fencing.
The house benefits from oil fired central heating. It requires redecoration and some renovation having been vacant for a number of years.
Traditional Buildings
To the rear of the farmhouse is a courtyard of traditional buildings set around a concrete yard. These are predominantly stone built with some elements in red brick. The roofs are a mixture of concrete tile, slate and fibre cement. This area also includes a small lean-to carport with steel profile roof. The buildings require renovation, but for the most part are double height and could be developed into additional residential accommodation, holiday cottages, storage or offices (subject to the necessary consents). The courtyard and farmstead benefit from a separate access to the public highway from the residential property.
Modern Farm Buildings
The modern buildings are arranged in a linear format and adjoin the roadside. The buildings include:
Mono-pitch implement store, a steel frame, steel profile and fibre cement roof with cantilever, concrete block walls and concrete floor arranged into five bays (7.9m x 22.6m)
Mono-pitch implement store, steel frame with steel profile roof with cantilever concrete block walls and concrete floor arranged into five bays (6m x 16.2m). There is an additional lean-to to this building, currently requiring renovation.
There is a concrete yard area to the rear of the main range of buildings which includes substantial slatted slurry storage and cattle handling area which opens onto the adjacent fields. There is substantial livestock housing arranged in a number of buildings with lean-tos. These are a mixture of steel and timber framed constructions with fibre cement and corrugated and profile steel sheeting, block walls, with Yorkshire Boarding to the majority. This building range extends to 25m x 23m and is arranged as one large yard together with a raised feed passage previously used as a collecting yard. This area is also connected to the slurry storage via a slatted channel.
Adjacent to the main livestock housing is a further steel portal frame building with fibre cement roof, part Yorkshire Boarding, block walls and concrete floor (13.8m x 13.25m). Adjacent to this building is the former milking parlour. This has been converted to provide a cattle handling system with crush, race and penning area. The building has a steel portal frame with steel profile roof, side cladding and rendered block walls (10.6m x 6.6m). Adjacent to this building is the bulk tank of the same construction and now provides a storage area (6.3m x 4.8m). The range is completed by a further general purpose farm building of steel portal frame construction with a lean-to, steel profile roof with part steel profile and part Yorkshire Boarding cladding, block walls, concrete floor and apart slurry channel (24m x 17.5m).
There are two feed bins located within the farmstead. Across the public highway is a further hard standing area with dwarf block wall surround which is currently utilised as a whole crop silage clamp and provides a useful storage area.
