About this property
About 76.41 Acres
2 Period Cottages
Extensive range of outbuildings
Ryme Horn Farm is delightful property comprising two pretty period cottages, an extensive range of useful outbuildings, stabling and sheds, all of which are surrounded by its own land of about 65 acres of mainly paddock land. In addition, to the east of the house and flanking the A352 is a further parcel of pasture land that extends to approximately 10 acres – please refer to the site plan.
The current arrangement with the cottages is such than one is occupied and the other has been let out, thus providing a suitable income. That said, this opportunity lends itself for an ideal multigenerational living arrangement, if required. For those who may seek an equestrian property, Ryme Horn Farm provides the perfect set up as it features wonderful paddock land with direct access onto public bridleways and a block of timber framed loose boxes with separate feed and hay store.
Ryme Horn Farm is approached down a long gravel driveway, which provides ample parking for both properties. Both houses enjoy their own formal gardens and boast far reaching views. To the side of the principal house is the range of outbuildings and vegetable garden and a large concrete apron providing space for agricultural machinery.
The stable yard and fields can be accessed separately to the side of the driveway. The paddock land is
divided into approximately 10 separate fields which lie to the east, south and west of the properties, and are enclosed by mature hedgerows. A public bridleway runs through the fields making this an ideal access
point for those keeping horses and riding out.
In addition to the main area of land, 9.39 acres lies to the east and flanks the A352. This fleld can be
accessed from the property, through a small area of woodland for which there is a Right of Way over for
Ryme Horn Farm.
Holnest village is situated on the edge of the Blackmore Vale, about 6 miles south of the favoured Abbey town of Sherborne, which offers an excellent range of independent shops, supermarkets and recreational facilities.
The county town of Dorchester is to the south and to the south west is the World Heritage designated
Jurassic Coast. Both Sherborne and Dorchester have mainline railway stations to London Waterloo. There
is also the local line from nearby village Yetminster to Bath/Bristol.
The A303 is accessed to the north from Wincanton, providing a direct east/west route, via the M3 into
London.
There are excellent state and private schools in the area including Leweston, Sherborne Schools,
Claysmore, Milton Abbey and Bryanston.
