The Property
Churchlands Farm lies on the Southern fringes of the village of Milland on the way towards Iping. It is situated on a quiet lane with a sizeable parcel of desirable pasture that has been very well maintained over the years.

Historically, the property has placed an emphasis on equestrian use however Churchlands Farm has excellent prospects as a small holding or development opportunity.

The house has planning consent for a “one for one” replacement dwelling of c. 4520 sq ft (c. 420 m2). The future owner has the benefit of this consent or to adapt Churchlands Farm as is. A useful facet of the planning consent is that the old farmhouse may remain until the new farmhouse has been built (see conditions of the consent – availably by request from the Agent). The replacement dwelling has excellent ceiling heights, scope for a basement (optional) and potential to convert the loft adding c. 50 m2 of additional living space (subject to consent).

The current farmhouse has four bedrooms and two bathrooms. The ground floor living space suits a family with formal and informal spaces, a large utility and handy attached double garage.

Outside there is plenty of space for parking and a well positioned terrace that overlooks the land and takes in lovely afternoon and evening sun.

Gardens and Grounds
The pasture that abuts the land extends to the Hammer Stream which forms the Northern boundary. The southern banks have been scrupulously maintained as have the ditches around the land. There is a very useful access to the land from the Iping Road. To ease the capture of hay, the fields are broadly open and have been cleared of bramble to provide good grazing.

The banks, hedges interwoven with daffodils and spring blossom, the ditches and trees provide a delightful aspect from the farmhouse.

Adjacent to the farmhouse but carefully screened, there is a stable block with 9 boxes and a large barn with various partitions to suit the use of the next owner.

The Location
The village of Milland is located in the South Downs National Park and is particularly well placed for access to the A3 and London rail network from Liphook and Haslemere stations. Milland has a community shop/café, school, recreational grounds and an outstanding public house.

The area is surrounded by beautiful open countryside, Liphook is only 3.5 miles away and Haslemere and Petersfield are just 7 miles distant, all of them having a good selection of shops, supermarkets, restaurants and leisure facilities. Guildford in Surrey and the Cathedral city of Chichester, both with renowned Theatres, are within easy reach and have more extensive shopping and leisure facilities. The A3 provides fast access to London, the motorway network, Gatwick, Heathrow and Southampton airports, whilst the mainline station at Petersfield provides a fast service to London Waterloo. Midhurst and the surrounding area have much to offer with Polo at Cowdray Park, racing at Goodwood and Fontwell, golf at Cowdray Park, Goodwood, Pulborough and Liphook, motor racing at the Goodwood circuit and sailing out of Chichester Harbour and other centres along the South Coast. There are many footpaths and bridleways in the area for walking and riding.
