West View Farmstead is a semi-rural farmyard and a collection of attached and detached farm buildings, situated within easy reach of a main road between the villages of Collingham and Besthorpe. The former farmstead has been divided into five separate parcels for development into new dwellings with a focus on sustainable heating and waste management.

Adjoining the farmstead are older character properties and attractive, farmed arable land.

Planning consent
Planning permission has been sought/granted to create five separate self-contained dwellings, including:

Plot 1, The Granary Barn: Conversion of the existing granary barn to create a two-storey dwelling with a single-storey east wing, with a north-facing rear garden.

Plot 2, The Grain Store: Conversion of the existing grain store, a brick farm building, to create a two-storey detached dwelling with a detached garage and an east-facing garden.

Plot 3, The Dairy Barn (East): A conversion of the existing dairy barn, making a single-storey semi-detached dwelling facing east with a large garden facing south and east.

Plot 4, The Dairy Barn (West): The second half of the existing dairy barn, converted to create a semi-detached single-storey dwelling facing west with a south- and east-facing garden.

Plot 5, The Farm Store: Conversion of an existing two-storey brick building into a single detached dwelling with a south-facing garden.

The properties are all designed to drain into a new below-ground sewage treatment plant with land-drains below the field facilitated by sandy, free-draining subsoils. Plots 2, 3 and four will also have ground source heat pipes below the gardens. The access will be changed to create a new entrance with better visibility.

Location

The property is set in a rural/semi-rural location surrounded by arable land midway between the villages of Besthorpe and Collingham.

The nearby village of Besthorpe is a charming Trent Valley settlement with many Local amenities such as the Lord Nelson Inn and a community village hall and church. The Farmstead is within easy reach of Besthorpe nature reserve, the route 64 cycle trail, and an abundance of footpaths and bridle ways enhancing the enjoyment of the countryside.

Collingham is a vibrant and sought-after village with a range of amenities including a primary school, doctors’ surgery, vet, a pub, library, hairdressers, butcher, Co-op supermarket, One Stop shop, Chinese restaurant, fish and chip shop and a railway station. It is conveniently situated for access to the A46 for commuting to Lincoln, the A1 and Newark which has a direct rail link to London (Kings Cross from 80 minutes). Nearby is a plethora of rural trails and lanes, perfect for walking dogs and riding horses.
