LOT 1 OF NEWLAND COURT

SITUATION

Newland Court is located within the village of Newland on the outskirts of the picturesque Malvern Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.

Junction 7 of the M5 is approximately 6 miles to the north east of the property and provides access to the wider motorway network. Both Malvern and Worcester contain railway stations with Birmingham Airport around 40 miles away.

For those looking for higher education the University of Worcester can easily be accessed by public transport.

FARMHOUSE

The farmhouse is a unique and unspoilt find providing the perfect renovation opportunity. Newland Court farmhouse is a substantial white painted brick dwelling dating back to the early 1800’s. It has previously been extended to the rear. The farmhouse enjoys a separate access to that of the adjacent farm buildings with a private driveway that sweeps around the front lawn.

There are 10 bedrooms accommodated over three storeys with ample living space and plenty of scope to create a delightful family home. The property boasts a range of character features including open fireplaces as well as enjoying pleasant views to the front lawn and driveway.

Approx. Gross Internal Floor Area 3,871 sq ft

FARM BUILDINGS

The farmhouse is offered together with a range of traditional and modern farm buildings. These provide immense opportunity either for use within an agricultural enterprise or for development into a range of other uses including residential conversion (subject to the necessary planning consents).

The farm building complex is substantial with around 25,000 sq. ft. of modern steel portal framed buildings and 10,000 sq. ft. of traditional buildings. The traditional buildings comprise a range of period brick barns varying from single to two storey. At the centre of the traditional buildings is a derelict walled garden that has potential to be restored to its former splendour.

The farm buildings have their own access separate to that of the farmhouse directly off Worcester Road.

AGRICULTURAL LAND

The agricultural land extends to approximately 81 acres of Grade 3 productive pasture that has previously been in an arable rotation. The land includes a small orchard that is adjacent to the farmhouse.

The land has been used for livestock grazing and silaging. Water is available from the brook. The land has good access through the farm buildings as well as roadside access from Stocks Lane.

The mainline railway to Malvern separates one field from the remainder of the grassland although it remains accessible via a private tunnel.
