  • Rare opportunity to acquire former agricultural building with planning permisison to convert to residential
  • Superb rural location adjoining farmland
  • Generous garden plot
  • Permission to convert into 3 bedroom barn style property with open plan kitchen/dining/living room and separate snug
A rare opportunity to acquire a redundant agricultural building with separate planning permissions to replace or convert into a 3-bedroom barn-style residence set in a scenic rural location. VIEWINGS BY APPOINTMENT ONLY.

Situated in a quiet, rural setting within the hamlet of East Martin and surrounded by open farmland, Martinique Farm comprises two former agricultural buildings that have been used for general storage purposes and sit in a generous plot with an open rural aspect to the rear.

Under the terms of Planning Application No.s 23/11191 and 22/11012, separate permissions have been granted, subject to conditions, for the replacement or conversion of the buildings into residential dwellings, respectively. Both units will have the benefit of generous rear gardens that abut and overlook neighbouring farmland and offer an exceedingly rare opportunity for an incoming purchaser to create a contemporary home in a wonderful setting. Plot 3 extends to approximately 181 sq. m. and proposed accommodation will comprise a luxurious principal bedroom with en suite and dressing room, two further bedrooms, a family bathroom, a snug/bedroom/office, and a generous, open-plan kitchen/dining/living room, orientated to take full advantage of the outstanding rural outlook to the rear. Provision has been made for an attached double car port.

The peaceful hamlet of East Martin is located on the edge of the conservation village of Martin. To the South-West is Martin Down National Nature Reserve where a network of paths and bridle ways provide lovely walking and riding opportunities. The local community is supported by a Church, Martin village hall and Community Shop, and village club whilst neighbouring Damerham has a primary school, garage and public house. The Avonside town of Fordingbridge (approx. 7 miles) has services to cater for most everyday needs and the Cathedral City of Salisbury lies approximately 9 miles to the North.

The area is blessed with an array of reputable primary, middle and secondary schools in the state and private sector, the closest being Western Downland in Damerham, Forres Sandle Manor, Fordingbridge Infants & Junior, and Burgate Seconday & Sixth Form within Fordingbridge, whilst Salisbury offers Bishop Wordsworth's and South Wilts Grammar Schools, Godolphin and Chafyn Grove.

Communications in the area are good and the A354 supplies convenient access to Salisbury and Blandford. The outdoor enthusiast is catered for not only by the surrounding countryside but also the New Forest National Park, which lies a short distance East of Fordingbridge.

New Forest District Council. Tax Band TBC.

Mains water and electricity to be connected. Private drainage system (Biorock water treatment system). Proposed air source heat pump.

Continue out of Damerham for approximately 3 miles. Enter the village of Martin and turn immediately right (signposted East Martin). Follow this road for approximately 1 1/2 miles and the entrance to Martinique Farm will be located on the right hand side.
