Crews Hill, Alfrick, Worcester, Worcestershire, WR6.

Baston Hall is a Grade II listed Elizabethan Hall house with converted outbuildings and secondary accommodation that is beautifully presented and maintained to a very high standard. The current owners have carried out an extensive programme of works across the house and the old stables, upgrading and improving the accommodation. Significant improvements to the wider farming estate have been made both in terms of infrastructure, soil health, ecology, and generally elevating the whole environment to be an exceptional place to live. The estate is farmed regeneratively, in line with nature, using responsible stewardship methods designed to constantly improve and enhance the living environment.

The house has evolved to be either a large single dwelling or can be split to suit the profile of the owner, to offer comfortable multigenerational living, staff accommodation or letting diversification opportunities. A new estate office and 'Cloud Room' (a flexible multi-purpose office/yoga studio/gym/party or function room) were developed in 2021, in the adjoining outbuilding that also incorporates the garaging. In a separate building, The Old Stables, is an exquisite three bedroom self-contained guest suite.

The approach to the house is via a sweeping driveway through ancient cherries trees. The gardens with mature trees, areas of open lawn, colourful flower and rose beds surround the house; and especially important for the wildlife and ecology, a decent sized lake with connecting cascading ponds. Within the garden curtilage but discreetly positioned to one side is the tennis court and surrounding the formal gardens are wild-flower meadows teeming with life, vibrance and at certain times of the year stunning colours.

Lot 2 - Land and agricultural buildings
Positioned at the far end of the estate are two large agricultural storage barns, one includes a secure workshop and machinery shed and open hay/cattle/sheep shed and the other has great flexibility with hay storage, officing, bathroom facilities, stables and tack rooms, plus an open fronted modern cattle shed, linking directly to the brand new cattle handling system. The barns and yard have their own access to the public highway and there is ample parking for large vehicles if required. The barns were previously used as racing stables and there is an old gallop that runs along the far edge of the estate and up the west facing bank. The current owners run a mixed farming enterprise of native cattle and sheep, farming with soil and biodiversity at its core, managing the grazing to improve the resilience, setting and the natural capital value of the whole estate, whilst producing outstanding grass-fed meat and pedigree breeding stock.

The land comprises numerous fenced and watered fields as well as a broad belt of mature and very beautiful semi natural ancient woodland that runs along the ridge down the middle of the estate. The present owners have invested in 1500m of additional water main, bringing water to all fields, new fences and hedging have been installed to improve livestock management and add further wildlife corridors.

Lot 3 – Keepers Cottage
A one bedroom cottage stands guard at the southern entrance to the estate. Currently used as a successful holiday cottage, but with full residential status, it benefits from planning permission to replace with a brand new three bedroom 1800 sq ft house, ref M/22/00940/FUL. It is offered with 1.6 acres of land being garden and paddock.
