An attractive, mixed arable farm with four bedroomed character farmhouse, range of traditional and modern farm buildings and about 96.11 acres (38.9ha) of arable and pastureland has just been launched on the market in Shropshire with Berrys.
Laburnum Farm, Heath Hill, Shifnal is available as a whole or in five lots with a total guide price of £1.59 million.
The property has a well-proportioned farmhouse and is well accessed from either the public highway or internal farm tracks. The land is located in one block within excellent proximity to the house and farmyard with the majority currently down to pasture and 15.04 acres currently in arable.
Located in a prominent agricultural area in east Shropshire, Laburnum Farm sits on the edge of the hamlet of Heath Hill just north of Sherrifhales, an historic village listed in the Doomesday Book of 1086 with an excellent primary school. To the north, the popular market town of Newport provides a vast range of local shops and amenities for everyday needs with an excellent range of nearby schools including Haberdashers’ Adams (formerly known as Adams Grammar School) and Newport Girls’ High School.
The well-presented Duke of Sutherland farmhouse has a large garden, parking and far reaching views over the farm and neighbouring countryside. Internally, the property flows from a good-sized porch into the hallway and through into a large farmhouse kitchen. There is a cosy sitting room with an open fire, a spacious shower room and a larger lounge with a wood-burning stove.
On the first floor there are four well-proportioned double bedrooms with spectacular views and a large family bathroom.
The 96.11 acres of quality arable and pasture land are offered in five lots. The majority of the fields are serviced either by council-maintained roads or internal tracks. All parcels of land are well fenced with useful areas of shelter and water supply. The land is primarily Grade 3 land and the predominant soil type is Salwick which is suitable for both pasture and cereal crops.
