Description

Whitehouse Farm is a well located and productive arable farm in a highly regarded part of south Norfolk. Centrally positioned around Whitehouse Farmhouse, the farm is arranged in four principal lots, with the residential led Lot One forming the core of the holding and the surrounding agricultural land extending to the north, west and south. Whitehouse Farmhouse is an attractive Grade II listed 17th century plastered timber framed dwelling, providing seven bedrooms and four reception rooms across three floors. The farmhouse is complemented by a range of traditional and modern outbuildings within the immediate curtilage, together with a large modern agricultural yard to the west with independent access from Denton Road, as well as a small group of paddocks and an area of woodland.

Lots 2, 3 and 4 comprise the surrounding agricultural land. Lot 2, situated around the farmhouse, forms one of the main blocks of commercial arable land. Lot 3 lies to the south west of Lot 1 and provides a range of large, well connected and productive arable fields. Lot 4, positioned directly south of Denton, is largely arable land with a small area of pasture, offering flexibility for cropping, grazing or environmental uses. Across all lots, the land is arranged in good sized, workable fields suitable for modern machinery and efficient farming practices. The farmland is all Grade 3 as per the Provisional Agricultural Land Classification and belongs predominately to the Beccles 1 soil series.
