Larford Farm is a delightfully situated residents-owned chalet site set amidst beautiful countryside between Stourport and Astley Burf on the banks of the River Severn, adjacent to Lincomb Weir and the renowned Larford Lakes Fishery.

With around 300 metres of privately controlled coarse fishing on the banks of the Severn, the location is not only an angler's paradise but is also an idyllic and pictureque escape from the rat race, ideal for those seeking a quieter lifestyle and a change of pace.

Uniquely, the freehold of the site is owned and managed collectively by the residents' own limited company, Larford Farm Estates Ltd, and therefore no annual pitch fees or site rent is payable. Indeed there is no third party involvement in any aspect of the site whatsoever.

Similarly there is no age restriction on occupants, and pets are allowed.

The purchaser of Holmlea will acquire the outright freehold ownership of the plot in which Holmlea stands, together with a 1/51 share of the whole of the communal land, encompassing a secure gated access lane, leading to two car parks & the communal field. The total area being circa 6 acres.

Newly constructed in 2000, Holmlea has the important benefit of a certificate of lawful use granted in 2020, establishing planning consent to occupy the property & associated curtilage, for residential use as a single dwelling house. Many of the chalets at Larford are classified as holiday homes, so the value of Holmlea's full residential status cannot be overstated.

The chalet stands at the perimeter of the riverside meadow, within a short walk of the weir and newly created fish pass, constructed in 2021 to encourage the safe passage of twaite shad upstream to their breeding grounds.

The property sits on a steel framed concrete base on raised brick pillars which could easily be raised further in height. The property has been updated in summer 2022 to include newly repainted exterior woodwork, window frames, doors and decking, newly laid gravel surrounds, new perimeter fencing to side and rear, a new felt-tiled roof, newly decorated interior rooms with new flooring to both bedrooms plus the shower room.

Holmlea also benefits from vehicular access over a track to the rear, where there is a private garden area with potential to create additional parking spaces. This rear access track is most advantageous in the winter months, when the field may at times become waterlogged or inaccessible for vehicles.

It should be noted that various chalets at Larford Farm, including Holmlea, have occasionally suffered from water ingress at times when the river has peaked and flooded the meadow. A number of chalet owners in recent times have mitigated this risk by raising up their properties on supporting brick pillars. The owner of Holmlea has previously obtained an estimate of between £5-10,000 for completion of this work.

There is also scope to considerably increase the size of the property, either by way of extension or replacement should the purchaser ever wish to do so.

The general communal upkeep of the site necessitates an annual maintenance charge divided equally between the residents, currently set at £300 per annum for each property. An in-house managed syndicate at Larford Farm Estates offer coarse fishing along the River Severn within the estate curtilage for £35 per annum.

Mains electricity and metered water are connected to the property. There is a BT phone connection point available close to the property, which would enable a broadband connection. Electric heaters are fitted. Drainage is to a septic tank. Council tax is payable to Malvern Hills District Council, rated as Band A.
