lot 1 - Bramling Court FarmHouse and Barn1.29 acres (0.52 hectares)
Bramling Court Farmhouse is approached off Bramling Road with a gravelled parking area to the north of the house. A side gate leads up a path to the rear entrance to the property whilst the front door is located on the eastern elevation.
The front door of Bramling Court Farmhouse opens into the entrance hall off which the drawing room and dining room radiate. Through the dining room is the study with views over the garden towards the farm buildings. The dining room also leads through to the kitchen and onto the utility room, pantry and downstairs WC. The utility room provides access to the walled garden and this door is used as the principal access on a day to day basis. There are two cellars within the property, off the kitchen and dining room respectively.
The staircase to the first floor is in the rear hallway off the dining room and leads up to four bedrooms and a family bathroom on the first floor. Further stairs lead to the second floor where there is a further bedroom and separate store room.
Outside there is a large timber framed storage barn which may lend itself to a range of alternative uses, subject to planning.
The gardens surround the house with a large former orchard to the south. There is also a disused swimming pool and summer house adjacent to the southern elevation.

lot 3 - Bramling Court Farmland 501.84 acres (203.10 hectares)
In total the land at Bramling Court Farm Lot 3 equates to 501.84 acres (203.10 hectares) and is essentially divided into three parcels by minor public roads. The fields are of a commercial nature and size, suitable for modern arable farming techniques. The land is classified as grade 1 and 2 on the Agricultural Land Classification Plan for England and Wales with the soils comprising a mixture of shallow lime rich soils over flinty deep clay soils. The land has been sympathetically farmed by the current tenant with a 3 year arable rotation of predominantly autumn and spring sown cereals, with occasional oilseed rape and beans. A cropping schedule is available from the selling agents.
The farm could present alternative uses, such as re-wilding, vine growing, or forestry, which could sit alongside the existing arable operation.
The acreages for Lot 3 are broken down as follows: � 489.98 acres (198.295 hectares) of predominantly arable land with a small area of pasture land
� 9.63 acres (3.90 hectares) of woodland � 2.23 acres (0.905 hectares) of tracks and miscellaneous areas.
general remarks
BasiC Payment sCHeme The farmland is registered with the Rural Payments Agency and the Entitlements will be included within the sale. The claim for the current year will be retained by the Tenant and the Vendor agrees to use reasonable endeavours to transfer the entitlements for future Basic Payments to the Purchaser(s).
Countryside stewardsHiPThere is no scheme currently running over the farm.
soilsLargely grade 1 and 2 farm land with soil types ranging from fine silt to chalk.
designationsThe entire farm is designated as within a Nitrate Vulnerable Zone.
tenure, metHod oF sale and PossessionThe freehold of the farm is being offered for sale by private treaty and comes with vacant possession being granted upon expiry of the current tenancy on the 10th October 2021.
The farm is available as a whole or in 3 lots.
Fixtures and Fittings, Holdover and early entryWe are advised that harvested grain is taken directly to the off-site grain storage facility at Wingham and we do not anticipate holdover will be necessary; however, if holdover is required, a clause will be introduced into the sale contract which will enable the Tenant to retain use of some of the property for a short while after completion.
If a purchaser requires early entry onto the land in order to establish crops for the 2022 harvest, they will be able to do so entirely at their own risk, under licence arrangements with the Vendor.
All fixtures and fittings, unless specifically mentioned in these particulars, should be deemed the property of the tenants.
emPloyeesThere are no employees to be transferred under TUPE regulations.
Plans and lottingThe plans and associated acreages have been prepared for illustrative purposes and their accuracy cannot be guaranteed. The Vendor reserves the right to alter the lotting or to not sell any of the lots.
overage and restriCtionsThe farm buildings and land area that surrounds them within Lot 2 as well as Field 4954 within Lot 3 will be subject to overage of 30% of the uplift in value should they become developable for all non-agricultural development over a term of 40 years from the completion of the sale of the property.
There will be restrictive covenant for approval of plans and to limit use of the farmhouse and barn to a single private dwelling house (Lot 1).
vatThe Vendor has made a voluntary election to waive the VAT exemption and therefore VAT will be payable by the buyer in addition to the purchase price. All offers should be made excluding VAT and it will be assumed unless specifically stated otherwise that this is the basis on which offers are submitted.
mineral, sPorting and timBer rigHtsThe Vendors reserve all mines and minerals from the sale, with surface searching and underground working powers only.
All timber and sporting rights are included in the sale insofar as they are owned by the Vendor.
wayleaves easements and rigHts oF wayThe property is sold subject to and with the benefit of all existing wayleaves, easements and rights of way, whether public or private, specifically mentioned or not.
