Adderley Green Farm, Betley

The Farmhouse

Approached via the tree-lined driveway stands an impressive period farmhouse that has been slowly and carefully renovated over the last few years to an excellent standard creating a beautiful family home.

The ground floor comprises a large kitchen and family room. Leading off from the kitchen is a separate utility, with a useful pantry, a shower room and an office with direct access onto the yard. There is also a further sitting room, a dining room and a summer room which leads directly out onto the gardens. Off the hallway is access to the cellar.

To the first floor are three large double bedrooms, all of which are ensuite (one with a dressing area) and a further separate dressing room which is accessed from the landing.

The remaining part of the first floor is currently left unfinished and offers the buyer an opportunity to place their own stamp on the property, whether that be combining the space to create further bedrooms or forming a separate annexe by incorporating some of the living space on the ground floor.

Further Dwelling

Full planning permission was granted in 2016 for the creation of a five bedroom farm manager's dwelling (subject to the usual agricultural occupancy conditions) Ref 16/00150/FUL. Sufficient work, including digging the footings, was completed to secure the permission but the house has not yet been constructed. Once completed this property will provide secondary accommodation ideal for additional family also employed on the farm or a farm worker

The Gardens

The gardens at Adderley Green Farm, whilst mainly laid to lawn, are private and incorporate a large patio area ideal for outside entertaining.

The Farm Buildings

A comprehensive range of farm buildings are found to the side of the farmhouse. There is no doubt that whilst the traditional brick buildings, have potential for development (subject to any necessary planning consents), they continue to offer valuable utilisation for agricultural purposes. There is a variety of more modern buildings providing housing for up to 180 cattle, one of which houses the parlour and dairy, and a silage clamp, a lagoon and a slurry tower. For those with equestrian interests, there is certainly scope to adapt the buildings for horses. With a separate dedicated farm drive, the buildings could be utilised independently of the farmhouse if required.

The Land

The majority of the land is found to the east of the farm buildings in one ring-fenced block. Predominantly classified as Grade III on the soil survey on England and Wales, the land is suitable for grazing or arable crops and is currently in grass with two blocks of maize stubble. A concrete track runs through the farm and provides good access to most fields.
