Over the years The Fairoak Grange Estate has been developed into an all round residential and commercial property. It combines an attractive principal house, holiday let business and a commercial farming enterprise with an excellent range of versatile barns and outbuildings.
The farm offers enormous scope for a multitude of uses whether they be leisure for the private individual or commercial use. Within the picturesque and undulating grounds numerous enterprises could be established including off roading, paintballing and equestrian uses.
Fairoak Grange
Standing to the end of a long drive, Fairoak Grange is an attractive farmhouse with an outlook over its sweeping parkland. It has the benefit of a traditional courtyard which was rebuilt and converted in 2007 into four holiday lets, conference/games room and farm office.
The farmhouse offers comfortable living accommodation with three reception rooms, two of which have open fires. The fitted kitchen enjoys views to the garden and opens to the utility room with shower room off. Stairs ascend to the landing off which are four bedrooms, two of which benefit from vanity units, and the family bathroom.
Outside the gardens are mainly laid to lawn offering privacy from the courtyard to the front.
Holiday Cottages
The holiday cottages are set around an attractive central courtyard which was re-built using the original sandstone and stylishly converted in 2007. All of the holiday cottages have been refurbished to a high standard and have delightful views.
Pool End: A two bedroom residential unit sleeping 4/5 people. The open plan living space on the first floor includes a fitted kitchen with adjoining dining area and living room taking in views across the pond.
Courtyard and Cosy Cottage: Each one bedroom, these cottages similarly have upstairs open plan living space.
Field End Cottage: Offering two bedroom accommodation, with upstairs living space, this cottage opens to views of the estate.
Annexe Rooms: The two further annexe rooms offer self contained bedroom suites with en suite bathrooms.
The cottages also benefit from a conference/games room with kitchen facilities.
Farm Buildings
To the north of the house is an extensive range of quality universal commercial farm buildings.
These include two steel portal frame buildings, both with electric roller shutter doors and one containing four Brice Baker 90 tonne corn bins, a hay barn and cattle shed. There is a former cow shed which houses the shoot room with kitchen area, store and office. A further farm office and store with internet connected is situated in the barn nearest the farmhouse.
The Land & Woodland
Fairoak Grange Estate extends to about 405.52 acres (164.23 ha) of which 208.44 (84.41 ha) is pasture and arable land.The land is currently utilised as permanent pasture, arable and for the production of miscanthus grass.
Wrapping around the south western boundary of Fairoak Grange is the woodland, the freehold of which is offered for sale as part of the estate. Whilst available for amenity use, the area known as Little Bishop's Wood, extending to approximately 197.08 acres (79.75ha), is currently under a lease to the Forestry Commission which was granted on 16 October 1952.
The Shoot
For a number of years a significant shoot was run at The Fairoak Grange Estate with up to 18 days shooting a year of between 90-120 birds. This could easily be re established utilising the undulating nature of the ground, six ponds, established game cover, existing pheasant release pens and 207.31 acres of woodland.
There is a dedicated shoot room as indicated on the block plan with a useful kitchenette and shower room. This room could also be used for conference purposes.
