About this property

    Newton Court Farm lies just 1.8 miles to the north east of Monmouth and commands a fantastic position with far reaching panoramic views over surrounding countryside.

    Newton Court Farmhouse provides superb accommodation over three floors. Extending to approximately 2,564 sq ft with three main reception rooms and four bedrooms, the farmhouse has been recently renovated sympathetically throughout, whilst retaining the traditional features and charm. The front door leads to a hallway with downstairs cloakroom and spacious farmhouse kitchen featuring a Range style cooker and Esse stove with a central kitchen island. Double doors from the kitchen open onto a spacious south and west facing terrace, ideal for outside dining. From the kitchen/diner a door opens into the generous living room with fireplace and wood burner. From the living room is a cosy family room, with wood burning stove and feature arched window with shutters, framing views over land to the south and east. Stairs from the living room lead to a lower level, currently used as a staff room, offering great potential for conversion into further living space. This area leads to an office, which boasts more stunning views with doors opening to the garden. A beautifully crafted oak staircase leads from the rear of the living room up to the first floor. Four double bedrooms are situated on the first floor, each having a vaulted ceiling and exposed feature beams and provide good sized double bedrooms. A family bathroom and shower room are situated on the first floor. A driveway and parking area are situated to the front of the house.

    Adjoining the farmhouse is a fantastic range of traditional farm buildings including a former cider mill, a remarkable stone building attached to the south side of the house. The building has many period features and far-reaching views over the land and countryside to the south. In the past, the mill was accessible from the farmhouse which could be reopened and converted, to create further family living accommodation, subject to obtaining the necessary planning consents. The farm buildings sit in an elevated position with access to the farmland and hold huge potential for alternative uses such as residential, leisure or amenity uses. The highlight of this potential development area is a wonderful stone barn with timber roof joists and rafters, capable of development into two residential units or even a wedding venue (subject to obtaining the necessary planning consents). The vendors have received positive feedback from Monmouthshire County Council regarding plans to convert the traditional and modern buildings at Newton Court Farm into six dwellings, comprising two residential dwellings and four holiday dwellings. Copies of this pre-planning advice and the associated plans are available from the vendor’s agent.

    A bunk house (former farm building) is located next to the farm buildings and provides additional accommodation and a shower/toilet block, offering potential conversion into additional accommodation to suit multigenerational living. A laundry room and borehole plant room are also located in this area. The farm buildings are set within a linear complex of buildings and are accessed over a track to the north of the property. There is also access via the parking area underneath Newton Court Farmhouse itself.

    Land

    About 98 acres (40 ha)

    The gently undulating pastureland at Newton Court Farm offers approximately 82 acres of productive pasture, predominantly facing south and southwest. The Mally Brook forms the western boundary, adding charm and character to the landscape, as well as approximately 3 acres of woodland. Newton Court Farm includes a stunning vineyard, approximately 10 acres, located to the south of the farmhouse. The vineyard is planted with approximately 6,000 Chardonnay vines and is certified organic. Now coming into full maturity, an annual yield of up to 20 tonnes can be achievable with a possible production of up to 15,000 bottles of wine per annum. Alternatively, a cash crop could yield revenue of up to £5,000 per tonne. This is an ideal entrée for a newcomer to vineyard ownership wanting a lifestyle change, with the vineyard being of a manageable size but capable of a decent production level. Wine making facilities could be available and handover advice regarding the operation of the vineyard can be provided if required. Further information is available from the vendors agent. Additional revenue could also be available through environmental and agricultural schemes.
