The Farm:
Sutton Farm is a ring fenced farm set in beautiful countryside on the edge of the Cranborne Chase comprising circa 123 acres. The land is gently undulating with some breath-taking views from the high ground, and is predominantly a balanced mixture of good quality arable, grass lays and permanent pasture. The farm is divided into manageable sized fields with good access from a principal track.
There is a substantial range of modern portal-framed agricultural buildings and a concrete yard, situated a sensible distance from the house, which include two excellent grain stores and a large open fronted machinery shed. These buildings are scheduled overleaf and can be seen on the corresponding block plan.
The House:
Sutton Farm house is an attractive unlisted period five bedroom property positioned at the end of a private drive. The house itself is particularly attractive, constructed of period brick elevations under a pitched clay-tile roof. It has been extended twice, both many years ago, and is well-configured with a nicely proportioned sitting room and views over the surrounding gardens which encircle the house.
A courtyard of traditional buildings and cattle shed sits adjacent to the house, and could be converted to annexe or office space.
One of the barns in the courtyard has been granted for a two bed room class Q conversion ref P/PAAC/2023/01956 East Dorset District Council.
Acreage: 123 Acres
