Location
Glebe Farm is in a rural location in the cradle of the beautiful countryside of Westover in Calbourne. It is situated in West Wight, almost equidistant between Newport to the east and Yarmouth to the west, both offering a selection of shops and restaurants as well as boat access to the water. Transport links to the mainland are good. Yarmouth to Lymington is a forty-minute car ferry and the Cowes to Southampton passenger ferry is less than half an hour away.
The Property
Glebe Farm offers a wonderful opportunity to own a mixed use holding comprising a farmhouse, traditional and modern agricultural buildings, pastureland, an established holiday-let business, including six static caravans and a successful livery yard with equestrian facility as well as other areas of revenue opportunity that could be explored. The property is approached off Newport Road, via a long country lane which gently dips down dividing the owner’s land to reveal Glebe Farm at the end. There is ample space for parking provided by a field on the left and for vehicles needing to access the farm buildings.
Farmhouse
The farmhouse is a comfortable, three-bedroom family home, double-glazed throughout and with stunning countryside and distant hilltop views from every window. It was built in the 1940’s with a ‘lean-to’ extension and large conservatory added later to create additional living space. Outside the gardens are pretty and wrap around three sides of the house with access at one end into a fenced paddock area which could be used as additional lawn space.
The garden consists of three lawned areas to the south, east and west of the property and access to an additional mown lawn that could be used alternatively as a paddock if fenced on all sides. Delightful countryside views surrounding the house can be enjoyed from various positions within the garden, including from the terrace adjacent to the conservatory. Mature trees, well-stocked flower beds and established shrubs create colour and interest throughout the seasons. There is a small pond, possibly the site of an original well.
Static Caravans
The established holiday caravan business provides an attractive income stream, with six caravans currently operating as holiday lets within a peaceful rural setting. Generating approximately £50,000 per annum, the business enjoys an enviable position surrounded by open countryside and benefits from dedicated supporting infrastructure including a laundry and service building. The existing operation offers incoming owners the opportunity to continue trading from day one while exploring future
growth opportunities.
Equestrian Facilities/Livery
Complementing the holiday business is an established DIY livery operation, currently generating approximately £14,000 per annum. Supported by a comprehensive range of stabling, tack rooms, feed stores, a sand school and grazing land, the enterprise is well-equipped to cater for local equestrian demand. The facilities provide scope for continued operation in their current form or further expansion, subject to the purchaser’s requirements.
