Summary - Castle Hill, Buckland Newton DT2 7DE
1 bed 1 bath Farm House
Large historic farm with cottages and buildings — ideal for agricultural owners or investors..
279.62 acres of productive pasture, woodland and panoramic hilltop views
White House Farm is a substantial 279-acre Dorset holding centred on a Grade II listed five-bedroom farmhouse, a pair of semi-detached cottages and an extensive mix of traditional and modern farm buildings. The land is mainly productive permanent pasture, interspersed with copse and mature woodland, and rises to Dungeon Hill with far-reaching panoramic views across the Blackmore Vale. The farmhouse is spacious and well-proportioned but requires comprehensive modernisation and works to realise its potential.
The farm buildings and yard provide a flexible operational core and include traditional brick ranges under corrugated roofs (some asbestos) and modern steel-framed sheds. Several buildings offer clear scope for alternative uses or conversion, subject to planning and listed-building constraints. The property includes water troughs in most fields, mains electricity and water to residential lots, and LPG to the cottages.
Important considerations: the farmhouse is Listed (Grade II), several buildings have asbestos roofing, residential drainage systems are dated and not compliant with current regulations, and the farmhouse and one cottage have EPC rating G. Parts of the holding lie within a Nitrate Vulnerable Zone and Dungeon Hill is a Scheduled Ancient Monument, all of which will influence permitted works and future plans.
This holding suits an agricultural buyer, land investor or developer experienced with planning/listed-building consents who values scale, biodiversity and sporting/woodland interest. The farm can be offered as a whole or in up to six lots, offering flexibility for farming continuation, diversification or phased refurbishment projects. Buyers should factor in renovation costs, potential asbestos removal, drainage upgrades and the implications of listed and environmental designations.
