Description
5.73 ACRES (2.32 HA) of fishing lake and grounds on the outskirts of Winchester.
A unique opportunity to acquire an established fishery set within over 5 acres of picturesque grounds offering a fabulous opportunity for tourism or recreational use, STPP.
GUIDE PRICE - £400,000
Description - Church Paddock Fishery is a unique and well established Trout and Coarse Fishery in a tranquil setting offering a multitude of exciting diversification opportunities in close proximity to the South Downs National Park and River Itchen whilst offering excellent access and proximity to Winchester. The Fishery comprises a single lake of almost an acre with a traditional fishing lodge and full licenced cafe/bar benefiting from an outdoor seating area overlooking the lake.
The Site offers 15 fixed pegs but is well maintained allowing anglers to enjoy Site fishing around the whole perimeter to stalk their quarry. The lake is stocked with a variety of species including Brown Trout, Rainbow Trout, Common and Mirror Carp and array of smaller coarse species. All stock available subject to separate negotiation.
The excellent clarity of the lake allows for wonderful site fishing opportunities and the well-maintained banks make it a wonderful venue for beginners to learn to fly fish as well as for experienced anglers to target the resident specimens.
The fishing is currently let on a day ticket basis year-round and also caters to corporate groups.
The current owners have previously used the Site for additional events such as weddings and have offered the lodge as a pub during the summer months with great success. The site very much lends itself to further event and tourism diversification with good infrastructure in place with potential to improve further, STPP.
Access is available to the north of the Site from Bedfield Lane via a private access leading to an ample hard core parking area. There is a secondary access to the east also on Bedfield Lane which is currently not used but is well placed for development and diversification opportunities.
Church Paddocks offers an exciting opportunity to enhance the existing Fishery, or to utilise the private and beautiful setting to establish an exciting new venue.
Situation - The site is situated immediately on the south-eastern edge of Headbourne Worthy, abutting the London Road to the south. The A34 and M3 are a short distance to the east and south respectively and Winchester City centre is less than a ten-minute drive. The Fishery very much benefits from this accessibility and indeed it suits further diversification STPP.
Access - The grounds have direct road access of Bedfield Lane which offers easy access to the villages of Headbourne Worthy and Kings Worthy. The access track leads down to the concealed parking area offering ample room for various cars to park, which then leads you down towards the ponds.
Method Of Sale - The property is offered for sale as a whole by private treaty.
Overage - An overage shall be applied for the grant of any change of planning use from the existing use for which 30% of the uplift in value shall be payable to the Vendor for a period of 30 years.

This does not benefit from planning but has been in continuous use over the last 20 years and the current owners will provide a Statement of Truth to this effect.
