Summary

An exceptional opportunity to acquire a well maintained fishery set in 9.18 acres of woodland on former cress beds boasting a main lake of 2.37 acres and a second canal style lake of 0.16 acres. The Fishery is set immediately south west of Charlton,
close to the A343 ring road with existing angling infrastructure, including a range of small outbuildings, all subject to an existing lease until 2030.

Fishery

Charlie’s Lake is an exciting and unique long-established carp and coarse Fishery on the outskirts of Andover set in picturesque and secluded woodland. The Fishery comprises a spring fed lake extending to approximately 2.37 acres of the whole Site, in addition to a small canal style lake of 0.16 acres.

The main lake offers 39 pegs and is stocked with a variety of carp and coarse species including bream, tench, barbel and pike. Many of the carp stocked are in excess of 20lbs. The canal lake offers five pegs and is an ideal lake for young anglers, again offering carp and a variety of coarse species.

Under the Lease, the fishing is currently let on a season ticket basis . The existing swims offer a variety of fishing with an interesting array of features for anglers to target.

The bank, pegs and lake itself are maintained to an excellent standard and the Site is otter fenced.

Access is available from the Charlton Road via a private tarmac access track which leads to the small parking area of which part benefits from consent for a café and/or tackle shop. There is a café currently operating, however it should be noted this, along with all stock in the lake, is the property of the current Tenant and is therefore excluded from this sale.

The Fishery is currently leased out with a remaining term of just under six years and a passing rent of £5,000 per annum.

Situation

The Site is situated immediately south west of Charlton, outside the A343 Ring Road. The Fishery offers a secluded oasis in an otherwise suburban setting but very much benefits from this in a wider context, being one of the most accessible fisheries in the region.

The A343 is accessible almost immediately from the Site leading to the A303, meaning Winchester, Newbury and Basingstoke are all within a 30 minute drive.

Land

The Fishery is located on the site of former water cress beds meaning there are also a number of smaller bodies of still and flowing water on the Site. The area surrounding the lake is established native mixed woodland, giving the Fishery a wonderfully scenic and secluded atmosphere.

There are a number of other bodies of water surrounding the main lake which could offer secondary lakes.
