PARTICULARS OF SALE
Set in rolling countryside just outside the boundary of the North York Moors National Park, Eastfield Farm is a small stock unit with a traditional stone-built farmhouse, mainly traditional and general-purpose buildings and over 50 acres of farmland lying in an L-shaped ringfence, much of which is of arable quality.
The property is available as a whole or in 2 lots, making lot 1 the farmstead and a paddock of over 5 acres and lot 2 a block of commercial grassland of over 47 acres, with a new access to be created from the road, away from the farmstead.
LOT 1 - FARMSTEAD AND PADDOCK LAND (edged in red)
Farmhouse
Built of local stone under a clay tile roof, Eastfield House is the centre-piece of the farm and is a handsome grade II listed building. The house is mainly 19th Century with the oldest sections dating back to 18th Century but has only enjoyed minimal modernisation. The farmhouse has an open south-facing aspect overlooking the parkland style home paddock with trees for shade.
The property is ripe for refurbishment, but retains many period details and offers spacious accommodation. In total, there are 3 reception rooms and 4 bedrooms over 4 floor levels, including a cellar and 2 attic rooms (could make further bedrooms), a first-floor house bathroom and a ground floor shower wetroom, plus a boot room.
Whilst the front door stands on the façade of the house, access is normally taken via the side door which opens into a spacious 'back kitchen' reception space which has a doorway to a stair rising up to one double bedroom on this side of the house and a walk in understairs pantry cupboard. A doorway leads through into the kitchen which is very simply presented with a door to the boot room at the rear with a partitioned WC and 2 external doors. Other doors from the kitchen leads to a stone staircase down to the cellar and through into a dining room with a marbleized slate fireplace and doorway connecting through to the entrance hall.
The entrance hall has the front door and the main staircase to the first floor of the house plus a door connecting through to the sitting room, again with a traditional fireplace. Off the sitting room a room has been converted to a shower wetroom, but this originally had a doorway from the kitchen which has been sealed up, but could be re-opened.
The main staircase rises to a split-level landing with 2 good double bedrooms at the front, one of which retains a period Georgian fireplace and a smaller single bedroom and a house bathroom to the rear. A door opens off the landing onto a staircase which rises up directly into the 2 interconnecting attic rooms situated within the roof void, but with potential to offer further bedrooms accommodation, if desired.
The property has a great deal of charm with some original sash windows, panelled cupboards, fireplaces, doors and exposed beams. A substantial renovation will be required for the house to truly fulfill its potential.
Farm Buildings
Situated to the west of the farmhouse, the farm buildings briefly comprise:
* Traditional range of single storey stone, pantile and CI sheeted loose boxes, pigsties and cart sheds.
* Traditional barn, approximately 55' x 20' externally, constructed of stone under a CI sheeted roof, comprising stable with granary over, traditional double height barn with mill house and granary over.
* Adjoining the above is stone walled range with pole supports under a CI sheeted roof of GP yard, with adjoining GP implement shed, to the rear of which is a small loose box with granary over.
* To the rear of the above barn and range is a lean-to shed of pole supports and a reinforced fibre cement roof, being GP implement store with small 2 bay extension.
All of the above ranges are earthern floored, with electric power and light.
To the south of the farmyard is:
* A simplex 40 ton CI sheeted corn store.
* Dutch barn, being 4 bay of pole supports under a CI sheeted roof, with full length lean-to to the north and double full length lean-to to the south. All of the same construction.
* Adjoining GP cattle yard in 3 bays, of light steel frame under a CI roof, with 2 bay extension to the south and 3 bay lean-to to the east. Similar construction and earth floors.
To the east of the farmhouse is a further 3 bay GP implement store 48' x 36' constructed of steel supports with CI sheeted walls and roof, being open fronted earthern floor.
The Land
The farmstead and land with Lot 1 extends in total to approximately 6.90 acres (2.79 Ha) excluding the access line to Lot 2, the paddock being approximately 5.34 acres (2.16 Ha) of this. This comprises a single paddock in front of the farm buildings and farmhouse, bisected by a track to the land beyond. It is an attractive parkland style paddock with mature trees and is all down to permanent pasture with reasonable hedges and fences to all boundaries.
LOT 2 - FARM LAND (edged in blue)
Lot 2 extends to approximately 47.39 Acres (19.18 Ha) including the access line to Lot 2 and lies in an 'L' shaped ring fence to the east and south of the farmstead. Please note that if Lot 2 is sold separately to Lot 1, then the purchaser of Lot 2 will construct and fence off a new roadway along the line shown dashed blue on the boundary plan, so to gain access from the road to the remainder of the land.
Currently all of this land is down to temporary grass, but the majority has grown corn in recent years. All fields are level, regularly shaped fields, which are fertile and appear in good heart, although are stony.
All fields are bounded by mature hedges, or secure post and wire fences. There is a sheltered dale which runs along the southernmost leg of the field which provides sheltered grazing. All fields are adequately supplied with mains water to troughs where necessary.
