Ashcombe Farm is a purpose-built dairy unit set in approximately 153 acres of productive Grade III arable and pastureland. The property was developed from bare land after 2010 and completed in 2012, so the farmhouse and modern steel-framed dairy buildings are relatively recent and designed for low-input dairying. The farmhouse is subject to an Agricultural Occupancy Condition (AOC). The farm sits in a quiet rural setting near Lydeard St. Lawrence with straightforward road access to Bishops Lydeard and Taunton.
This is a practical working farm for a purchaser seeking immediate agricultural use or an investor interested in lotting options. The buildings include a 20/40 parlour layout with a 220-head throughput design, covered yards, fodder store and a slurry lagoon. The land is ring-fenced, generally gently undulating and capable of combinable cropping; there is a footpath crossing Lots 1–3 and the land is currently subject to an SFI agreement (from November 2024).
Notable constraints are the Agricultural Occupancy Condition on the dwelling and the presence of a slurry lagoon which requires ongoing management. Broadband speeds are limited (ADSL, up to c.13 Mbps download), mobile signal is average and council tax for the house is Band E (above-average running costs). The property will be sold at auction and may be offered as four separate lots or as a whole, which suits buyers seeking flexibility in scale or investment strategy.
