Description:
Field Meadows Farm is a rare opportunity to acquire a small farm on the edge of the city of Hereford in the popular parish of Hampton Bishop. Hereford offers all the amenities that one would expect in a county town with the city centre within five minutes drive from the property. Field Meadows comprises of a four bedroomed detached bungalow with adjoining paddock with the bungalow being subject to an agricultural occupancy restriction. There is a range of modern style farm buildings that were originally designed for the former dairy enterprise but may offer potential for alteration and adaption to other agricultural activities or possible change of use to equestrian or other purposes (subject to any necessary planning consents). The farm benefits from productive former riverside meadows that are currently in arable rotation. A Stank runs through the farm to protect the house, buildings and neighbouring property from the occasional significant flooding of the River Wye. It is considered that the property could be of interest to first time farmers or existing farmers looking to expand with a dwelling suitable for either family or an agricultural worker. Alternatively, it could be of interest to investors seeking to diversify and, at the same time, have some recreational or amenity benefit from their investment.

Land

The good sized fields are all flat and currently in arable rotation having formerly been riverside meadows when the farm was a dairy holding. Most of the land lies between the River Wye on the southern boundary and a Stank used as a flood barrier along the northern side with a further field to the north of the Stank next to the buildings.
In total the farm is about 79 acres (32 hectares).
General Remarks & Stipulations
Field Meadows is for sale by private treaty either as a whole or in lots. The land hatched red on the plan that lies between the River Wye and the Stank (including part of the Stank) is about 65.17 acres. The land can be accessed along the west side of the barn, over which a right of way would be granted. The buildings and field north of the Stank totalling about 13.23 acres can be purchased with the land but will not be sold separately to the 65.17 acres until the 65.17 acres is sold. The bungalow (edged green) is also available either separately or with the land and buildings. If the land and buildings are sold separate to the bungalow then the purchaser of the land will be required to construct the new access through the roadside paddock for which there is planning consent.
