CL1

Positioned on the edge of the Candover Valley, the estate comprises a substantial principal house with cottage, positioned at the heart of 313 acres of pretty Hampshire countryside. There is an additional farmhouse, large agricultural building, stables, outbuildings and a family shoot.

The Breach Estate lies in some of Hampshire's finest countryside on the edge of the Candover
Valley which broadly stretches from Basingstoke in the north to Alresford to the south. It is renowned for its great natural beauty and is a landscape of rolling Hampshire down land, ancient woodland and small village hamlets which have changed little in decades.

The village of Dummer just to the north has a public house, church, village hall and golf club. Despite its idyllic rural setting, Breach House is superbly located for access to London via the M3 about 3 miles away, bringing central London (about 55 miles) within a comfortable 1¼ - 1½ hour average drive time. There is quick access to Heathrow airport (41 miles) and Farnborough for private jets (22 miles). The Cathedral City of Winchester, Basingstoke and Alton are within easy reach providing an exceptional range of business, recreational and schooling facilities.

Rail communications are excellent from Basingstoke, about 6 miles to the north, with regular main lines services to London Waterloo in about 42 minutes. There are two very good primary schools in the neighbouring villages of North Waltham and Preston Candover.

Breach House (Lot 1)

Breach House sits in a wonderful position at the end of a long drive and surrounded by its own land. Sweeping through the brick and flint front gates you arrive at a turning circle to the north of the house. The main house is extremely well laid out with a series of excellent reception rooms running off the spacious entrance hall including the large drawing room, billiard room and dining room. There is a spacious family kitchen/breakfast room and pantry as well as a large informal sitting room, study and cellar. The ground floor lends itself to both formal entertaining and family life.

Off the spacious first floor landing is the large master bedroom suite with two dressing areas and bathroom. There are five further en suite bedrooms on the first floor and two on the second. At the east end of the house is the integral flat which is ideal for either guest or staff accommodation. The flat has a sitting room, kitchen/breakfast room, two bedrooms and a bathroom.

The house also enjoys an excellent indoor swimming pool complex with a 15 metre pool, Jacuzzi, two changing rooms and WC. Breach House has lovely gardens with a pond and views over the estate.


Garden Cottage (Lot 1)

Situated just off the main drive, Garden Cottage comprises a hall, kitchen/ breakfast room, utility room, WC, sitting room, three bedrooms and two bathrooms. It also has extensive storage and garaging. This cottage would work well as staff or guest accommodation.


The Estate Yard (Lot 1)

To the east of the main house is the estate yard with a traditional stable block which has significant potential. Below is the shoot room and game larder. The shoot room has a full working kitchen with shower room and WC. It is an ideal space for entertaining. Adjacent is a four bay concrete frame barn. The buildings will benefit from a separate shared access should lot 1 and lot 2 be sold separately.

The house has an excellent kitchen/breakfast room, sitting room, dining room, study, utility, WC, main bedroom with en suite bathroom and dressing room, three further bedrooms and family bathroom. In addition there is a separate garage block.


The Grain Store (Lot 2)

The large modern farm building has 2,000 tonnes of grain store. This
could easily be converted into an indoor riding school with little adaption. There are lean-to's on either side providing a large machinery store on one side, and six stables, tack room and workshop on the other. The complex of buildings works well for the farm but equally has huge potential as a well-equipped equestrian centre.


The Land

The Estate lies in some of Hampshire's most beautiful countryside and has a wonderful combination of rolling farmland and mature mixed woodland. The woodland is well laid out to provide a family pheasant and partridge shoot with well managed woodland that is easily accessed by a series of conveniently laid out tracks and rides. The woods are alive with an abundance of wildlife including fallow and roe deer, hares and other game, and wonderful wild flowers including carpets of bluebells.

There is also a pond ideal for duck flighting. The diverse terrain lends itself ideally to the family shoot and also offers wonderful walking and riding. The arable land is farmed in hand under an annual contract farming agreement with a local farmer.

Higher Kerrowe is a quietly located residential farm with holiday cottages. The farm comprises a comfortable, spacious four bedroom farmhouse, an adjoining two bedroom character cottage and two popular holiday lets. The farm includes modern farm buildings and 30 acres of pastureland.

The farmhouse provides well presented, spacious, light and comfortable 4 bedroom family accommodation. The adjoining cottage is of immense character and can be used as additional accommodation to the farmhouse, further holiday letting accommodation or is ideal for two-family occupation. To the front of the house and cottage is a large parking and turning area with a garden enclosed by Cornish hedges with shrubs and bushes providing shelter and privacy. To the rear of the farmhouse and cottage is an area of lawn with an attractive pond, two further holiday cottages and an excellent range of farm buildings. The property is surrounded by approximately 85 acres of pastureland in two main blocks. The whole farm is contained within the West Penwith environmentally sensitive area.

A substantial Victorian manor house in an enviable location with a range of traditional outbuildings set in
about 8.2 acres.

Kenstone Manor sits in a stunning valley on the edge of the Hodnet Estate famous for its gardens and sporting heritage. The name Hodnet is of Celtic origin and means peaceful valley and the setting of Kenstone Manor certainly lives up to this. To the south are uninterrupted views over the pond and along the valley. To the west the views include the famous Hill Monument of the Hawkstone Estate. Behind the house beyond some pasture is a sheer escarpment covered with mature deciduous forest called Hopley Edge. The setting provides a tranquil oasis and could not be a more stereotypical English pastoral scene.

The nearby village of Hodnet has an active community and includes a Church, doctors surgery with dispensary, village shop, butcher, filling station, village hall, primary school, The Bear Inn and a handful of other small shops in the village. Nearby larger towns of Market Drayton and Shrewsbury provide further amenities and shopping.

Schools in the area are excellent, including the Shrewsbury School, the High School for Girls, Ellesmere College, Adams Grammar School in Newport and the High School for Girls, as well as the Wrekin College at Telford.

While Kenstone Manor may sit so quietly and privately in its sleepy valley, the A53 is very easily accessed to the south of the valley.

Kenstone Manor is a well laid out country house with a flexible range of outbuildings that could be adapted for a number of uses. It is thought that the house may have originally been a part of the Hawkstone Estate. Over recent years, the current owners have carried out numerous restoration projects, replacing windows, doors & frames and skirting to name a few, as well as various works to the outbuildings, replacing like for like using traditional materials and methods wherever possible.

The rooms are laid out to cater both for formal entertaining in the traditional reception rooms at the front of the house which enjoy the best of the views, and for family living in the range of rooms at the back of Kenstone Manor. Whilst the accommodation as it stands offers great family space, there is still scope to improve and potentially extend.

The house has high ceilings throughout and many of the Victorian features have been preserved including the original dark oak staircase and tiled hallway. Tall windows allow the outstanding beauty of the area to be enjoyed from within the house.

In all the accommodation provides light airy rooms for formal entertaining, well lit by casement windows. Many of these rooms take advantage of the wonderful views that Kenstone Manor sits in amongst.

Kenstone Manor itself forms one side of a rectangular courtyard, the remainder of which is a mix of red brick and sandstone traditional agricultural buildings. Many of these buildings have benefited from recent renovation work including re-roofing, refacing in sandstone and many new doors and windows, all safeguarding the integrity of this flexible range of buildings. With the appropriate planning permission these buildings could be converted to a number of different uses.

Kenstone Manor is approach either by the sweeping drive to the front of the house of by a separate rear drive into the courtyard accessed from Clays Lane. A series of well maintained lawns with box hedges and sandstone walls for borders immediately surround the house to the west and south and a paved terrace outside the sitting room together provide a practical space from which to enjoy the stunning scenery around Kenstone Manor.

The land lies both to the south across Clays Lane with a paddock with working water troughs and stock proof fencing next to a large pond set on the edge of a glade while to the west across the lane is further land and ponds, which we believe attracts a variety of birds and other wildlife.

Two further lots of land are available by separate negotiation:
Lot 2: about 14.1 acres
Lot 3: about 11.3 acres

Please note that the brochure refers to the property as a whole.

Approached along a private driveway, leading off Kimpton Road, is Old Ramridge Farmhouse, a beautiful unmodernised Grade II Listed 3 bedroom, 2 bathroom detached property with barn, stables, granary and outbuildings, overlooking pastureland.

The farmhouse, which was originally built in the early sixteenth century as an open hall, is simply beautiful with its traditional handsome charm.

The property would benefit from refurbishment, but once completed, this would make a beautiful character home in a lovely rural, yet convenient location. The house has a wealth of period features, including a superb Gothic style arch into the kitchen, oak panelled walls and a large, quite stunning, inglenook fireplace with seating in the sitting room.

There is planning consent provided to convert the barn and stables into two 3 bedroom separate dwellings, each with private gardens, outdoor storage and parking (North Herts. DC ref: 09/01748/1). Great thought and consideration has gone into the design of the two new homes, which seeks to retain the character of the original buildings, utilising exposed beams and traditional styled windows and doors. Total size of the site is 3.27 acres.
