A well equipped small livestock farm extending to approximately 58 acres in a noted farming district just outside the popular North Shropshire town of Wem.

Brook Farm is a well equipped small livestock farm extending to approximately 58 acres in a noted farming district just outside the popular North Shropshire town of Wem.

. - The farm briefly comprises a substantial three storey farmhouse of great character, which offers huge potential for modernisation and improvement, together with gardens, a substantial range of Traditional and more modern farm buildings and surrounding land extending in all, to approximately 58 acres or thereabouts.

.. - Well appointed and well situated farms such as this do not often become available for purchase in this area, so Halls, the sole selling agents, strongly recommend an immediate inspection to appreciate the possibilities that it has to offer.

Situation - Brook Farm is situated approx. 1.7 miles from the well known North Shropshire town of Wem which has an excellent range of local Shopping, recreational and Educational facilities including a main line railway station. Whilst enjoying this location the farm is still within easy motoring distance of the larger centres of Shrewsbury (12 miles), Chester (29 miles) and Telford (24 miles), all of which, have a more comprehensive range of amenities of all kinds.

The Farmhouse - The residence at Brook Farm is a substantial three storey period farmhouse of great charm and character which retains a number of original features.

... - It provides spacious and versatile internal accommodation comprising a ground floor rear Entrance Lobby, Inner Lobby, Cloakroom, Kitchen/Breakfast Room, Living Room, family Room, Sitting Room/Snug, Hall and Office together with Four first floor Bedrooms and Family Bathroom and Three second floor Attic Rooms (with potential for adaption into living accommodation).

.... - The farmhouse has immense potential to modernise and refurbish according to ones own individual tastes and preferences and has a two storey Range of farm buildings attached providing further potential to adapt into further living accommodation (subject to PP).

..... - There are lawned gardens attractively set around a courtyard together with an Orchard to the front and include a detached double Garage.

The Farm Buildings - The farm buildings are an unusual feature of the property and include a two storey Range building attached to the side of the farmhouse together with a further substantial L' shaped Range which fronts the courtyard. These buildings have great potential for alternative usages, including residential (subject to planning consent). The more modern farm buildings are ideal for continuation of their most recent use of livestock housing and machinery storage.

The Land - The land at Brook Farm is a major feature of the property and lies within a ring fence predominantly to the south of the Homestead. The land is retained in convenient sized enclosures of grassland providing excellent grazing and mowing opportunities. The land is in a noted farming district well known for its heavy stocking capabilities and is therefore ideal for those with all kinds of livestock, especially horses.

...... - Brook Farm extends, in all, to approximately 58 acres , or thereabouts, more specifically described in the Schedule later in these particulars.

Former Stable 33' x 18' (10.06m x 5.49m)
