LOCATION: See Location Plan. What3Words:
DESCRIPTION: The Property extends in all to approx. 2.35 acres (0.95 Ha) as outlined red on the Site Plan.
The access back off Mayhill Lane rises to the elevated position of both the House and the Agricultural Building and Yard.
The Vendors purchased the Property as bare land in January 2008 and themselves achieved Planning Consent for the dwelling which is subject to an Agricultural/Forestry Occupancy Condition and which they constructed in 2015.
The house benefits from a spacious and modern layout with the existing accommodation extending to 1,850ft² (171.9m²). See Floor Plan.
Poppy Down Farm House occupies an exceptional elevated position offering far reaching views over the Meon Valley and towards Beacon Hill and Old Winchester Hill.
HOUSE AGRICULTURAL/FORESTRY OCCUPANCY CONDITION: Condition 6 of the Decision Notice of the Planning Consent for the house (dated 16th May 2012) states that:
'The occupation of the shall be limited to a person solely or mainly working, or last working, in the locality in agriculture or in forestry or a widow or widower of such a person, and to any resident dependants.'
The house Occupancy Condition can be satisfied by either agricultural or forestry related employment in the locality or by an appropriate enterprise being carried out at the Property. Alternatively, if a Purchaser was 'last working' in agriculture or forestry, or retired, then this would be suitable.
PLANNING CONSENT FOR HOUSE EXTENSION: The Vendors achieved Planning Consent for a ground floor extension November 2023 which will provide an additional 2 Bedrooms and 1,033ft² (96.0m²) of accommodation. This has not been constructed. If built by the Purchaser this would create a total of 2,883ft² (267.9m²) of accommodation within the house. See Plans and Elevations Click Here - and Planning History links on page 3.
AGRICULTURAL BUILDING: Currently used as a Store and Workshop, with office. Dimensions 20.0m x 12.0m with height to eaves 3.5m and ridge height of 4.7m. See Floor Plan. 5 Bay steel portal framed (part insulated cladding) with polished concrete floor. Water and electricity connected. Currently laid out with internal partitions. 2 x Roller Shutter Doors (width 3.0m x height 3.3m). Toilet connected. Hardstanding yard adjoining with access along either side of the building.
TIMBER AGRICULTURAL BUILDING: (5m x 10m) previously used for housing Turkey. The adjacent covered Aluminium Frame can remain on site if required.
