Description
Hackthorne Farm is a unique opportunity to purchase a farm which has been occupied by the same family for over 80 years and within the family ownership for the last 52 years. The traditional two storey farmhouse dates back to 1826 and has been used as a family home over the decades.
The three holiday cottages to the rear of the house provide an excellent source of income for an incoming purchaser. Permission was granted in October 2023 under Class Q for the change of use of an existing agricultural building to a two bedroom dwelling house. There is also a useful range of farm buildings which could be used for a wide variety of purposes.
The level pasture land is classified as base-rich loamy and clayey soils, and is divided into manageable sized enclosures with mature hedgerows. All the land is down to grass with good road access and has been used to graze sheep and cut silage from.
Lot 1 hackthorne farm – Approximately 4.46 acres
Hackthorne Farmhouse is a charming six bedroom family home of local stone and brick, built in 1826. The house is approached via a sweeping drive which leads to a gravel parking area and courtyard of buildings at the rear of the house.
The layout of the house provides plenty of scope and opportunity to be rearranged to suit an incoming purchaser(s) requirements. The rooms on the ground floor currently comprise; Entrance Hall, Snug with large stone fireplace and traditional bread oven, Sitting Room, Dining Room. Kitchen, Conservatory, downstairs Shower Room, Utility, Study and Store Rooms.

The garden lies to the south of the house and is a private enclosed garden laid to lawn. There is a compact indoor pool, the water for which is heated with solar panels.
Outbuildings
Close to the house is a garage with an adjoining useful steel framed barn containing a Snooker Room and a Games Room as well as a WC with sink, which have provided great enjoyment for the family over the years. As part of the planning consent for the Old Piggery in Lot 2, the adjoining bay of this building is to be demolished.
Behind this building is the former parlour building now used as a workshop and store. Adjoining which is the timber framed structure containing the swimming pool.
