Lower Tancredston occupies a pleasant rural setting in the heart of the Pembrokeshire Countryside some 10 miles or so northwest of the town of Haverfordwest which, as the principal administrative centre of the coastal county of Pembrokeshire, has the benefit of an extensive range of amenities and facilities.

Agriculturally, this is an area renowned for productive early land suitable for grazing, cropping and arable use, with farms in the locality being used for all of these purposes.

Lower Tancredston is a highly developed dairy farm including a modernised residence and a useful range of buildings, typical of a progressive farmstead development. In 2007, the decision was made to relocate the dairy set up to a greenfield site a short distance from the original farmstead with easy access to the grazing paddocks, with further cubicle housing and other infrastructure being added later.

Mains and private water via a borehole are connected. Mains electricity, private drainage to the residence, oil fired central heating being a combination of underfloor heating to the ground floor and radiators on the upper floor. The Farmhouse has uPVC double glazing.

Lower Tancredston is freehold of tenure and vacant possession will be granted on completion. No basic payments are included in this sale.

There are no public footpaths crossing the land.

The sale of Lower Tancredston offers a good opportunity to acquire a highly developed dairy farm in a pleasant rural setting in the heart of the Pembrokeshire countryside. The farm includes an appealing residence that has been sympathetically modernised to offer deceptively spacious and well-presented accommodation that complements the farm.
The original farm buildings around the house continue to provide useful ancillary agricultural housing and storage although some areas now require some improvement. Nevertheless, these buildings are ideally suited for machinery, crop or fertilizer storage or heifer rearing, and the traditional buildings may have some conversion potential subject to the necessary consents being obtained, if further accommodation is required.
The modern dairy buildings were specifically developed for the holding and are well designed for ease of livestock management and include a suitable slurry storage provision and a variety of labour-saving features now considered standard in a modern dairy unit.
The buildings occupy a central location on the holding, with the land being a block of highly productive early land that has been progressively managed to ensure maximum returns from a suitable grazing rotation. The land is in the main level or gently sloping with excellent access to the buildings off cow tracks or adopted highways and includes areas which have in the past been used for arable purposes.
The farm is offered for sale with the option of purchasing or renting an additional 174 acres of land of which 160 acres may be considered clean.

This is a rare opportunity to purchase a dairy holding of this nature in this locality and viewing is highly recommended.
