Description
Location:
Copse Hill Farm is situated in the heart of the Blackmore Vale, 1 mile south of Sturminster Newton. Positioned equidistant from Blandford Forum, Shaftesbury and Sherborne, Copse Hill Farm benefits from a prime location. The farm is well connected to the national road network. Taking direct access off Copse Hill Road, subsequently linking to the A350 at Hanford, and the A303 beyond, the farm has suitable access for HGVs. The location offers stunning views over the Blackmore Vale.
Description:
Copse Farm currently operates a functioning pullet rearing operation with a capacity of 40,000 birds. The shed is of clear space, built from tin cladding and steel frame on concrete block bases with concrete floors. The shed has an approximate gross external area (gea) of 24,000 Sq Ft. Automatic feeders, nipple drinkers and mechanical ventilation are installed throughout the shed. Ventilation is provided by side mounted fans (outlets) that draw air in from ridge vents (inlets). Heating is provided by a gas boiler and boxer heaters in the shed. Feed is supplied into the shed by two 24 tonne bulk feed bins. The property operates on solar power and mains electricity, an automatic backup generator. There is one dwelling on the farm, a 4 bedroom American style Ranch House. Sat at the crest of Copse Hill Road, the house benefits from extensive views to the north, looking down over the Blackmore Vale. The ranch house was extended 10 years ago, creating space for an open plan kitchen dining room, multiple living rooms, a master bedroom and large ensuite bathroom. There are an additional 3 bedrooms and 2 family bathrooms in the house. A plethora of outdoor seating areas allow for the view beyond to be enjoyed from every angle. Whilst the property does have an agricultural tie, subject to planning the site would lend itself to a variety of uses. In total, Copse Hill Farm extends to approximately 22 acres (8.9 hectares), bound in the main by mature hedgerows with small areas of woodland.
