Lot 1 | Whitehouse Farm, Puddington Lane, Puddington, Cheshire, CH64 5SQ

A substantial and meticulously managed mixed farm Description Since its acquisition in 1965, farmed by three generations, Whitehouse Farm, has been carefully improved and developed as a first class dairy enterprise.

Home to the pedigree Deehaven Canadian Holstein herd, the stock was imported directly from Canada to form a notable high-health herd.

At its peak, the unit ran a 250 cow milking herd with around 200 followers. More recently, the farm has been managed as a mixed forage and arable enterprise, balancing production with sound husbandry.

The farm has also grown potatoes and carrots in the past. Whitehouse Farm is an easily workable unit, served by public roads and an excellent network of internal tracks.

Located in an attractive and highly accessible part of West Cheshire, the farm offers a new owner the opportunity to run a single business, or combine several different agricultural enterprises, with opportunities for diversification.
