Description
Location:
Doctors Hill Farm lies on the outskirts of the New Forest national Park, in close proximity to Romsey, a market town typical to Hampshire. Nearby Sherfield English offers a picturesque setting, characterised by its quiet village atmosphere. The surrounding area is typical to Hampshire, featuring narrow country lanes, rolling hills and undulating fields. The land benefits from multiple dwelling planning applications.
Doctors Hill Farm is accessed via Doctors Hill, a small country lane that links Branches Lane and Newtown Road. Doctors Hill Farm totals approximately 6.84 acres split across two fields. The house and land would make a suitable location for low density residential development, with an potential option for commercial use. The land is secure with one other dwelling overlooking it. Made to feel even more private, due to the mature trees and fencing, limiting visibility from beyond.
Onsite Buildings:
There are two main dwellings on the land, Doctors Hill Farm and the Static Caravan. Doctors Hill Farm was acquired as a well loved family home in the 1920s and offers a wealth of period features. The well-loved family home, faces east onto the garden and the paddocks beyond. Additionally there are multiple barns and outbuildings which have been primarily used as a storage location over the years. The static caravan (Pemberton Lodge) has its own land registry title (separate and independent to the farm) sits to the north. It has been used as secondary accommodation since the 1950s.
Doctors Hill Farm comprises:
Kitchen, 4 Bedrooms. Sitting room. Utility room, Bathrooms and a conservatory.
Static Caravan comprises of:
Kitchen, Sitting room, Dining room. 2 Bathrooms, 2 Bedrooms and 1 ensuite.
Land:
Doctors Hill Farm has primarily been used as pasture land for grazing. The fields provide a terrific opportunity for a single or low density residential development opportunity (STP) that would be in keeping with the vernacular typical to the local area. If applicable, the land could be suited to multiple environmental projects, such as rewilding and tree planting. The current owners have continuously farmed the land as custodians with environmental objectives and targets in mind.
