An attractive parcel of productive permanent pasture with pond totalling 8.25 acres (3.34 hectares) together with a traditional agricultural building.
Situation
Peggs Farm enjoys a peaceful yet accessible position on the eastern fringe of Dorset’s Blackmore Vale, bordering the rolling landscape of the Cranborne Chase National Landscape. Set within gently undulating countryside, the farm commands far-reaching views across its own land towards Hambledon Hill to the south.
This idyllic rural setting is well connected, just 6 miles from the historic hilltop town of Shaftesbury and 8 miles from the bustling market town of Blandford Forum, both of which offer a wide range of everyday amenities and transport links. Shaftesbury in particular provides a good selection of shops, restaurants and nearby highly regarded schools.
The wider area is well served by an excellent choice of independent schools including Clayesmore, Port Regis, Sandroyd, Bryanston and the Sherborne Schools. Road communications are good, with easy access to the A350, A354, A30 and A303. A main line train station at Gillingham within a 25 minute drive to the north-west provides regular services to Salisbury and London Waterloo in just over two hours.
Lot 4 - Pasture Land, Building & Pond - 8.25 Acres
Immediately to the southeast of Brickyard Cottages is an attractive parcel totalling 8.25 acres. The land comprises 6.20 acres of productive permanent pasture, together with a traditional agricultural building of approximately 54 sq. M. Constructed of concrete block and brick elevations beneath a pitched clay tile roof, the building offers scope for refurbishment or alternative uses, subject to the necessary consents.
The land is bounded by mature hedgerows and features a large pond surrounded by broadleaf woodland. The pond, once a clay pit, is of historical interest as it is the source of material used in the construction of the adjacent cottages. Today, it adds amenity to the property and is a haven for wildlife, particularly teal, which regularly frequent the pond during winter months.
