DESCRIPTION
Lot 1: 4 Free range poultry houses, farm buildings and 26.21 acres in all - Guide Price: £655,000.
Lot 2: 32.30 acres of pasture - Guide Price: £210,000.
The Farm represents an attractive opportunity to take on an established free range poultry broiler unit with automated feed, watering and weighing systems for a 21,600 bird unit. The 4 free range houses are practically laid out, each with fenced off enclosures, 2 storage bins and generous concrete yards. There is a current Hook 2 Sisters Ltd, pence per kilo, contract in place that the buyer (subject to approval) could take over.
FURTHER FARM BUILDINGS
Close to the road are 2 further buildings comprising a steel portal framed LIVESTOCK BUILDING (60' x 40') (18.3 m x 12.2 m) with an internal feed barrier. Adjacent to this is a GENERAL PURPOSE BUILDING (30' x 30') (9.1 m x 9.1 m).
THE LAND
The land lies between 110m and 120m above sea level and is highly productive, gently sloping pasture land in 8 main enclosures. The fields are generally enclosed by stock-proof hedges and enjoy generous road frontage with several accesses.
PLANNING & DEVELOPMENT POTENTIAL
There are no restrictions or Section 106 Agreements in relation to the existing buildings. Current planning policy allows for new dwellings with an Agricultural Occupancy Condition in rural areas such as these, where an established, financially viable business can prove an essential, functional need for a dwelling, providing there is no suitable alternative dwelling available. Stags stress that purchasers must take their own independent advice on this matter.
The guide price for the whole is £865,000. For further information contact Stags Launceston office on 01566 774999 or visit stags.co.uk.
