Description

The Land and Building at Charity Farm is located in a rural location along the Pilgrims Way just to the west of the village of Hollingbourne, near the town of Maidstone. Hollingbourne is a charming village located in the Maidstone District of Kent and is situated at the southern end of the Kent Downs National Landscape.

The Land at Charity Farm is classified as Grade III on the Agricultural Land Classification Plan for England and Wales and extends in total to 66.32 acres. The land is considered to be freely draining with chalky lime rich loamy soils and ranges from 100m above sea level at the lowest point, to 150m above sea level at the highest in the north western corner.

Wind breaks were planted in 2023 with the view of planting vines on the land. In addition to this, the Vendor has had positive soil reports undertaken along with temperature monitoring and a vine planting plan which is all available from the selling agents on request.

The land is currently planted with Winter Wheat and the Vendor will be reserving holdover until completion of harvest in 2026.

Over the last 6 months, the Vendor has erected a brand new high specification agricultural/viticulture building that already includes a septic tank, mains water, rainwater containers and a sprayer catch pit, all of which is compliant with the current regulations.

The building extends to approximately 3,875ft² with the concrete yard to the west of very similar size.

Access is directly to the south onto a hard core access track from a gated entrance off the Pilgrims Way.
