Summary - WHITE HOUSE FARM, CASTLE HILL DT2 7DE
1 bed 1 bath Land
Large adaptable holding with woodland, panoramic views and redevelopment potential.
173.85 acres pasture and 38.70 acres mixed woodland included
An extensive working holding extending to 173.85 acres (70.34 ha) of productive pasture and 38.70 acres of mixed woodland, centred on the scheduled monument Dungeon Hill. The land is free-draining chalk/loam pasture with mature hedgerows, copses and strong panoramic views across Dorset from the hilltop. A substantial range of traditional and modern farm buildings (about 1,289 sq m) sits adjacent to the yard and could offer alternative uses subject to obtaining planning consent.
The farmhouse and cottages form a central cluster within the yard; the residential accommodation requires modernisation and some dated drains will need upgrading to meet current regulations. Several traditional buildings have corrugated/asbestos roofs and any repurposing will need to address roof materials and building regulations. Mains water and electricity are connected, but a historic arrangement providing free water is due to end in roughly ten years and cannot be guaranteed to continue.
This lot will suit an investor, farm business or developer looking for scale, habitat value and diversification potential. Sporting, timber and mineral rights are included and the woodland offers shelter and wildlife habitat. There are no Basic Payment Scheme entitlements or environmental scheme agreements included.
Buyers should note public footpaths and shared trackway arrangements across the holding, and that customary wayleaves and easements affect the title. Early entry may be permitted and vacant possession is offered on completion. The combination of acreage, buildings and designated features (scheduled monument and ancient woodland) creates clear potential — but expect planning, remediation and repair costs before alternative uses can proceed.
