Hollom Down, Lopcombe, Salisbury, Hampshire SP5

Hollom Down Farm presents a rare opportunity to acquire an exceptional farm occupying a private yet accessible position on the Hampshire/Wiltshire border. The property has been significantly enhanced by the current owners and now combines a beautifully appointed farmhouse, extensive equestrian facilities and productive pastureland with the benefit of planning permission for a substantial new country house. Together these elements create a highly versatile holding suited to a range of equestrian, sporting, lifestyle and residential interests.

The Old Barn provides an impressive converted barn offering spacious and characterful accommodation arranged over two floors with spacious interior and four double bedrooms, with a further self-contained annex providing ancillary or guest accommodation. Constructed in 2016 with traditional brick and flint to the front elevation and render to the side and rear elevations, the property provides a desirable outlook across the farmland.

The property has been carefully enhanced by the current owners and now benefits from a swimming pool and extensive patio terrace, creating an excellent environment for outdoor entertaining and enjoyment of the surrounding countryside.

Hollom Down Farm benefits from full planning permission (Ref: 25/02213/FULLN) for the demolition of an existing agricultural barn and construction of a new dwelling and annex, together with associated landscaping, infrastructure, domestic PV array and parking.

The approved dwelling is positioned within the heart of the holding on the site of a former agricultural building and provides an opportunity to create a substantial country home within its own land, producing a total GIA of 7136 sq ft.
Most importantly, the new dwelling is separate from the existing converted barn, providing flexibility for purchasers seeking a principal residence alongside secondary accommodation for family, guests, staff or rental purposes, subject to any necessary consents. The combination of the existing farmhouse, extensive equestrian facilities and approved newbuild dwelling offers considerable long term flexibility and appeal. Full planning permission was granted by Test Valley Borough Council on 9 July 2026. The proposed principal dwelling has been designed by McLaren.Excell, an wared-winning architectural practice with a reputation for creating exceptional contemporary homes that are carefully tailored to their setting.

The land extends to approximately 127.86 acres and comprises a ring fence of productive pastureland, divided into a number of useful enclosures by mature hedgerows and fencing. The land is well-suited to grazing, equestrian and wider amenity uses and surrounds the principal farmstead, providing privacy, security and ease of management. The holding enjoys attractive views across the surrounding countryside and offers an excellent balance of productive and recreational land.

Since acquiring the property, the current owners have undertaken significant investment to create and impressive private equestrian estate. The equestrian facilities centre around a modern stable complex incorporating quality loose boxes together with a bespoke secure tack room, kitchenette, WC and shower facilities. These are complemented by a boarded all weather manege, a five bay horse walker and extensive turnout and grazing paddocks. In addition, the holding benefits from a polo stick and ball field, providing excellent facilities for a range of equestrian disciplines. The holding also includes a range of additional buildings offering useful storage and operational space, further enhancing the versatility of the property.

Hollom Down Farm occupies a highly attractive rural position on the Hampshire/Wiltshire border, surrounded by rolling countryside whilst remaining highly accessible. The property enjoys excellent communications, with convenient access to Salisbury, Winchester and the A303, providing onward connections to London and the South West. The surrounding area is renowned for its outstanding riding and countryside pursuits, with a wide network of bridleways, quiet lanes and open countryside providing excellent opportunities for equestrian and recreational use. The nearby cathedral city of Salisbury and historic city of Winchester offer an extensive range of shopping, educational and cultural amenities.
