Church Farm is a substantial modern farm that has benefitted from significant investment in its dairy system infrastructure in 2018 with the installation of new cattle housing and buildings to house five Lely milking robots to modernise and transform the milking system and help the farm become more productive and efficient. In addition to an extensive range of modern outbuildings for the housing of cattle, feed and machinery there are also some stone barns that offer potential for conversion (stp). The farm has also grown in size over the years acquiring extra blocks of land in the vicinity for grazing and forage production to now have a farm extending to about 397 acres (stms – subject to measured survey). The main farm has a modern four bedroom house (subject to an AOC – agricultural occupancy condition). There are also two additional dwellings that adjoin the farm on the edge of the drive leading to the farm. These consist of a character four bedroom farmhouse and a modern three bedroom house, both being ideal extra accommodation for an extended family or staff.

The farm is primarily offered for sale as a whole but is divided in up to nine Lots due to the layout of the land and position of the three houses. Please note that Lots 2-9 will not be sold off before a sale completion of Lot 1 (Main Farm).

The Farm Dairy set up and Outbuildings
Across the track is the main farm dairy set up that includes an extensive range of modern open span outbuildings that provide accommodation for the dairy herd with about 280 cubicles (the milking herd at the time of writing is about 280 cows) and house the five Lely Astronaut milking robots. The cubicle sheds feature feeding channels running along the outside, slatted floors and automatic scrapers that take the slurry to reception tanks that are then pumped to the main slurry lagoon. Other buildings include the bulk milk tank room housing the Milkplan 16,000 litre bulk milk tank, pump room, loose housing for cattle (housing about 150 young stock) separate feed and machinery stores and the silage clamp.

The Land
The main farm block extends to about 191 acres (stms) and comprises a series of pasture fields that can be easily managed and provide grazing and silage for the dairy operation. They can be worked on by modern machinery and are accessible from the main farm yard via connecting fields and some useful tracks that run through and around the farm perimeter.

Please note that the main access lane into the farm and above internal tracks that cross the farm and divide Lots 4 & 5 and Lots 6 & 7 are Council owned.
