Description

Location:
North End Farm offers an unique opportunity on the edge of the New Forest. It is approximately 288 acres of predominantly permanent pasture land with two three bedroom semi-detached farm cottages (subject to Agricultural Occupancy Conditions) and a good range of farm buildings, well-positioned at the edge of the New Forest on the banks of the Avon. North End Farm is set in a quiet attractive rural area lying mid-way between Fordingbridge and Ringwood. The farm is gently undulating and is well sheltered to the west by Ringwood Forest and the River Avon forms the boundary to the east. The area is well known for its sporting and recreational facilities including sailing in Poole Harbour, golf at nearby Crane Valley and of course the special private golf course at Remedy Oak. There is also access to good walking in the New Forest and Ringwood Forest. Local towns of note which provide a good range of shopping, educational and recreational facilities include Ringwood, Salisbury and Bournemouth. Independent schools in the area include Canford, Dumpton, Moyles Court and Bryanston. Whilst state secondary schools include Ringwood School and The Burgate School and Sixth Form and state primary and infant is served by St James in Alderholt, Hyde C of E and Poulner Infant and Junior School in Ringwood. There are also good communication routes with the A338 which provides a route to the M27, M3 and London beyond with mainline railway services to London Waterloo available from either Salisbury or Bournemouth.

The Farm:
North End Farm is set in beautiful countryside on the edge of the New Forest on the banks of the river Avon comprising of 288 acres. The land is gently undulating with some superb views from the higher ground across the Avon Valley, and is predominantly of good quality permanent pasture, which includes water meadows and has been managed historically as a mixed system, with some very impressive yields of grass, barley and forage maize by the current owners. North End Farm provides an excellent opportunity to reinstate a dairy operation or to explore diversification options, including natural capital as well as other leisure opportunities, subject to gaining the necessary permissions. The farm is divided into manageable sized fields with good access from a principal track or from the public road. There is also an extensive irrigation system in place across the farm but the abstraction license would need to be renewed. There is a small block of woodland at the north of the farm which is a sea of blue bells in the spring. This area could be a fantastic glamping site, subject to gaining the necessary permissions.

Yard & Buildings:
There is a substantial range of farm buildings at North End Farm, most of which have benefit from new roofs. The buildings include a steel framed livestock building with around 200 cubicles, feed store and machinery shed, as well as parlour and farm workshop, which had permission to convert into residential use under a Class Q application.

The Cottages:
North End Farm offers two three bedroom semi-detached farm cottages, which are agriculturally tied (AOC) and they both encompass approx. 1.140 Sq. Ft of living space. The properties feature entrance on the ground floor leading to a kitchen, living room, dining room, and utility room with WC. On the first floor there are 3 bedrooms and a family bathroom. Each cottage comes with its own garden, which is predominantly lawn with some well-maintained flower beds. These properties offer a practical family space located close to the operational area of the farm.
