Property Description

DESCRIPTION

Little Halston Farm is a former breeder rearing farm, with much of the infrastructure still in situ. The unit has recently been granted an IPPC for 128,500 birds and the vendors are looking for the purchaser to take the farm on as a broiler unit with a 10-year supply contract.

The site has four 97.4m x 13.7m clear span steel framed sheds giving a total area of 5,338 sq m (57,437 sq ft) along with a connecting corridor with egg room, offices and showers off.

A very attractive three bedroom workers bungalow and close to the village of Pontesford

THE SITE

Exiting off the A488 you pass the managers bungalow on the left before reaching the site entrance and the gate house, with sign in, separate w.c and basin and cupboard. Pedestrian access to the rear directly down onto the site which leads to a large concrete apron with a steel framed, box profile elevation and concrete floor enclosed chemical store, three Calor gas tanks, 3,000 gallon Water storage tank, and five feed bins.

The sheds were constructed in the mid 1990’s and are steel framed with concrete dwarf walls and box profile clad elevations and roof. There is side inlet and ridge extraction ventilation, with two gable end maxi fans in each shed and Climatec environmental control. The sheds have Jansen nesting system with nipple drinkers and track feeders; heating is via Gas with two external hired hands space heaters in each growing space. The sheds do not have windows. Lighting is LED.

The connecting corridor is along the length of the sheds and houses all the environmental, water and electric controls. This leads to three walk through showers, two separate w.c.s, office, canteen, egg room, cold store, plant room and generator.

The concrete road follows around the north of the site to access the rear of the sheds; this passes the former incinerator – now redundant.

THE BUNGALOW

The detached bungalow is assumed to have an agricultural occupancy condition; it offers standard three-bedroom layout with fenced off rear and front gardens.

A single garage and garden shed for storage. Please note the bungalow has had a water leak and the living room and kitchen ceilings have fallen in and require repair. Otherwise, the bungalow is in good condition with full central heating and UPVC doors and windows throughout.
