A breakdown of the lots shows:

  • Lot 1 – Three-storey Vinesse Farmhouse, which is set in 6.68 acres. Parts of the house date back to the 17th Century
  • Lot 2 -Two-storey barn cottage with stabling, storage, menage and 8.8 acres
  • Lot 3 – Arable and grassland totalling 123.33 acres
  • Lot 4 – Arable land totalling 22.79 acres
  • Lot 5 – A block of arable and grassland totalling 15.1 acres

Property agent Gi D’Angibau, director in the rural agency team at Savills in Essex, said: “Vinesse Farm is an attractive residential farm with extensive equestrian facilities in a private location, yet within easy reach of Colchester and the A12.

“Available as a whole or in five lots, the main farmhouse provides a wonderful family home, whilst the secondary cottage offers spacious accommodation in a separate yard with numerous stables, feed and tack rooms, a menage and paddocks.

“The diverse holding also includes 143 acres of arable and 28 acres of grassland, with income currently supported by both a Countryside Stewardship Scheme and two SFI (sustainable farming incentive) agreements.

“The location of the farm means access to local facilities is convenient, whilst the equestrian part benefits from quiet roads in attractive countryside and provision for off road riding.”
