Description

POUGHNHILL FARM, CAYNHAM, LUDLOW, SHROPSHIRE, SY8 4JY

A Historic Shropshire Farm and Residence

In all around 143 acres 57 hectares

Available as a whole or in lots.

Location and Situation

Poughnhill farm blends a traditional and comfortable family home, with excellent opportunities for the new owner to develop their own equestrian, agricultural, environmental, or sporting interests, with a productive area of farmland suitable for grazing and mowing which could either form the basis of a personal farming enterprise, or provide an income from lettings and environmental management schemes .

Sitting within the rolling Shropshire countryside, accessed across a private bridge, with the land running up to and including Caynham Camp a scheduled monument , originally an iron age hill fort and now a significant marker in the landscape offering superb views. The farm comprises a combination of larger enclosures, smaller fields potentially suitable for equestrian purposes, and grazing on the hill side running up to the camp, bordered by mature hedges and woodland.

Poughnhill now forms a small hamlet of six houses on the estate, at the centre of which sits Poughnhill Farmhouse. A traditional stone under slate farmhouse, with six bedrooms across the first and second floors. Offering a wealth of character features and flexible space on the ground floor which could enable a new owner to create a large family kitchen and dining room.

Also included is Fixhill Cottage, a three bedroom cottage let on an Assured Shorthold Tenancy agreement. Offering an additional income or scope for secondary accommodation.
Whilst the principle attraction of the farm is doubtlessly the unique opportunity to steward this part of a historic landscape the farm will also serve as a comfortable family home.

Poughnhill Farm is just south of the popular market town of Ludlow, home to a strong collection of independent businesses as well as key local services and schools. Access to the nearby towns of Shrewsbury, Worcester and Hereford provide additional facilities.
