Background The property was purchased by the seller’s father in 1937 and has been in his family ever since. The farm has generally been run as a small grass and arable farm in conjunction with other farmland in the surrounding area. Planning 1) Planning consent has been granted, subject to conditions, by under reference 19/00291/AS for the conversion of the Grain Store into a 4 bedroom dwelling with an internal floorspace of just under 2400 sq feet. Consent was granted on 5 April 2019 and the development has to be completed by 5 April 2022. The CGI image on these particulars gives an indication of the external appearance of the barn once completed. NB : The successful buyer could make their own application if they wanted a different design or internal layout. Copies of the planning consent, the plans and other planning documents are available from Hobbs Parker on request The Bungalow The bungalow is mainly timber framed under a tile roof with pebbledashed elevations and is considered to have tremendous potential for replacement with a new house or bungalow. The current property offers deceptive accommodation which includes a large sitting room and kitchen/dining room together with 3 bedrooms. Gardens There is an L shaped garden to the rear of the bungalow divided into 2 parts. There is a more formal lawned garden immediately to the rear with a gazebo and a willow tree for shade whilst to the rear are some fruit trees and a large vegetable garden with 2 large poly tunnels and old raspberry cages. Farm Buildings 1) Grain Store about 59ft 6’’ x 38ft with planning consent for residential conversion ( see above ) 2) Implement/Old Chicken Shed about 23ft x 23ft, concrete block under a corrugated roof. 3) Old Grain Store/ Hay Store about 45ft x 19ft, 30ft x 19ft and 45ft x 20ft, concrete and timber frame. 4) Garage about 19ft 7’’ x 13ft 7’’, brick and block cavity wall under a corrugated roof. 5) Tractor Shed about 45ft x 25 ft, steel frame under a corrugated roof. 6) Cattle Shed about 41ft x 25ft. 7) Old Calf/Combine Shed about 36 ft x 32ft 6‘’, concrete block. 8) Timber Workshop in very poor repair. Farmland The land comprises a single block of level pastureland divided into 5 fields. The 2 front fields have not been ploughed since the owner’s family have been at the farm and are divided from the back field by a mature boundary hedge. The eastern boundary ditch is maintained on a regular basis by the Environment Agency as part of their ongoing maintenance of the ditches and waterways on Romney Marsh. There is more than enough space to the rear of the farm buildings for further buildings, a riding arena or similar. A footpath crosses a small part of the back fields. Soil Type/Land Grade The land is believed to be Grade 2 and the soil type is believed to be of the Wallasea 2 series. Basic Payment Scheme The land is registered for basic payment and a claim has been submitted for 2019. The BPS entitlements will be available by separate negotiation if required. Riding The local lanes are generally very quiet and perfect for hacking. There are a number of Toll Rides in the surrounding area, for further details the TROT website (tollrides.org.uk).
