A commercial dairy farm near Yeovil with just under 130 acres has come to the market.
Woodrow Farm in Yeovil Marsh is a residential and commercial agricultural holding in an accessible but private place, surrounded by 127.90 acres (51.76 Ha) of its own productive pasture and arable land.
The detached farmhouse is Grade II listed and there are a range of modern dairy and livestock buildings that could be converted subject to the necessary consents.
The L shaped, late 16th century farmhouse, whilst requiring a degree of modernisation, has the ability to extend into the adjoining two storey Wagon House to create either a larger farmhouse or a range of alternative uses, including possibly holiday let, office or ancillary accommodation.
The farm buildings largely comprise a range of modern livestock and general purpose storage buildings complimented by concrete yards and areas of hard standing.
The adjoining land currently comprises short term grass leys and arable land with a small area of orchard and permanent pasture well suited to a range of agricultural or other amenity uses.
The farm buildings comprise a compact range of dairy, livestock and storage buildings which include a dry cow barn, loose housing, straw barn, cubicle housing, calf housing and a dairy.
The farm is contained within a ring fence with access available from the farmstead and from the adjoining lane in the north east corner. The land is separated into a number of good sized workable enclosures of arable/pasture land, a large part of it having been cropped for maize and barley over recent years all of which is now laid back to productive temporary grass leys.

The land is generally level and would support dairy and/or beef cattle enterprises together with arable, all of which have been carried out on the holding. The land is enclosed by traditional, natural hedgerows with stock proof fencing and benefitting from good access points.
The soil is a combination of loamy and clayey soils with free draining lime rich loamy soil and is classified as being a Grade 3 on the Land Classification Maps.
Woodrow Farm is for sale as whole with Greenslade Taylor Hunt and has a guide price of £2,250,000.
