Description

A rare opportunity to acquire a small farm holding held in the same family ownership for generations. Set within over 8.5 acres and comprising a residential property and extensive outbuildings.

The estate boasts an exceptional sense of arrival, with a long private driveway sweep
ing past two pristine front paddocks before reaching the principal residence and
continuing into the wider holding.
The Farmhouse
The principal residence is a characterful and substantial farmhouse that has been
thoughtfully extended over the years. The property is beautifully presented throughout
and meticulously maintained, blending modern living with charming period features,
including a traditional inglenook fireplace and an original bread oven.
The Ground Floor comprises three formal reception rooms offering flexible living space,
a spacious kitchen / breakfast room with adjacent dedicated utility room that provides
practical side access, and a ground-floor bedroom, bathroom and separate cloak
room.
The first floor offers four well-proportioned bedrooms arranged around a central landing.
The property offers excellent scope for further alteration or modernisation, subject to
the necessary consents.

Three Legged Cross is an established village providing a choice of convenience stores, vets and Garden Centre amongst the local amenities. It is conveniently located close to the market towns of Wimborne and Ringwood, both of which have a variety of cafes, restaurants, leisure facilities and a Waitrose supermarket. The village is ideally positioned for enjoying the Dorset countryside or coastline. Leisure activities are plentiful with direct access to miles of open bridleways and hacking routes on your doorstep, the popular Moors Valley Country Park, Snowtrax Activity Centre, The New Forest National Park and top-notch Golf Clubs. The A31 provides quick access to Southampton, London and beyond by car. Mainline railway stations are located at Bournemouth and Christchurch with services to London and along the south coast. There is an excellent choice of state and private primary and secondary schools including a first school in the village itself.

Outside
Set within approximately 8.66 acres of versatile land, the property includes around 5.25
acres of dedicated paddocks and an extensive footprint of agricultural outbuildings set
in 2.87 acres. Spanning over 21,000 square feet, these structures historically supported
a successful poultry enterprise and are serviced by a network of highly functional access
tracks. While some buildings are currently let on an ad hoc basis under short-term
licences, others offer scope for renovation. Subject to obtaining the necessary planning
consents, this substantial built footprint presents an outstanding commercial enterprise
or diversification opportunity for an incoming purchaser.

AML
Estate Agents are legally required to conduct Anti-Money Laundering (AML) checks on all parties involved in the sale or purchase of a property. W&W use a specialist service called "Guild 365" to perform these checks. This is a service offered to Estate Agents who are members of the Guild of Property Professionals. These checks must be completed before a property is listed for sale and as soon as an offer is accepted (before we send out the Memorandum of Sale). There is a non-refundable fee of £25 (plus VAT) per person. Note: W&W receive a portion of this fee to cover our administration costs in processing these legal checks.
