Description
Enjoying a remote setting in the north Suffolk countryside, The Chediston Estate offers a predominantly ring-fenced block of high quality farmland with three detached dwellings at its core. Approached via a long scenic drive from the public highway, the heart of the Estate also features a range of farm buildings. The extensive farmland can all be accessed from this point and offers a strong commercial operation as well as enjoyment as an amenity estate with a stocked fishing lake and good sporting potential.
The Land
The land at Chediston surrounds the Grange Farm buildings and is easily accessed from the well maintained internal farm tracks, providing excellent access to the fields and which link the main farm access to the public highway. The fields are of sufficient scale and shape to enable economic application of modern farming operations.
The land is classified on the Soil Map of England and Wales as primarily Grade 3 with soils of the Beccles 1 series, a fine loam over clay most suited to the growing of conventional cereal crops. The Vendor has farmed the land under a Contract Farming Agreement with a nearby contractor. The contractor has farmed the land for a number of years to a high standard, predominantly on a white straw rotation. It is understood they would be pleased to continue to farm the land for the Purchaser (subject to terms).
With rolling topography, the land drains naturally through a series of ditches serving the comprehensive network of land drains, plans of which are available in the Data Room.
As well as a productive commercial farm, extensive wildlife habitat and stocked fishing lake, the farm also offers a range of sporting opportunities. Although currently not actively shot, the landscape lends itself to the creation of a very attractive and sustainable shoot.
Location
The Estate lies just to the south of the village of Chediston which itself sits to the west of the popular market town of Halesworth. Here, extensive amenities including retail and leisure can be enjoyed with road and rail links available to the wider region. The A12 is a major trunk road which can be joined at Darsham and links to popular coastal areas including Southwold, Aldeburgh and Orford before continuing south through Ipswich, Chelmsford and London.
