Introduction - Far Gatten Farm is situated in a beautiful rural location in the heart of the Shropshire Hills area of outstanding natural beauty, a mecca for walkers and nature lovers. The farm lies between 300 and 390 metres above sea level and enjoys superb views towards the Stiperstones from the farmhouse, and The Long Mynd, from the high ground, and running through the lower meadows is the River East Onny.
The detached farmhouse is thought to date back originally to the eighteenth century with several later additions and principally built of stone and brick under a pitched slate roof. It boasts characterful and extensive accommodation of five bedrooms, four bathroom/shower rooms, four receptions, kitchen, larder, utility and conservatory.
Beautifully landscaped gardens lie to the south of the house and an excellent range of traditional and more modern farm buildings lie to the north, together with a triple garage.
The land rises from its smaller river meadow enclosures at its western point to the higher and more extensive fields to the east with spectacular 360 views.
Situation - The farm is located in the beautiful mid-Shropshire countryside with easy access to livestock auctions at Shrewsbury and Bishops Castle. The county town of Shrewsbury is 13 miles away and offers a comprehensive range of facilities and services including access to the national rail and road network. More locally are the towns of Bishops Castle and Church Stretton.
The area has the biggest concentration of upland and semi natural habitat within the AONB. Although there is a sense of wilderness, the area is carefully managed and linked with surrounding farms. The Long Mynd and Stiperstones are among the most popular walking destinations in the country and also has a good bridleway network with the Shropshire Way crossing the Long Mynd.
It has a single access driveway from the minor public highway across a cattle grid.
