This expansive property encompasses approximately 28.07 acres (11.36 hectares) of predominantly grade 4 pastureland and woodland, offering a unique opportunity for renovation and investment. The land is currently enrolled in a Mid-Tier Countryside Stewardship scheme, which is effective until December 31, 2026, providing a framework for managing the land sustainably while potentially enhancing its value.
Within the property, you’ll find agricultural buildings, including a traditional brick and stone barn that, although in a state of disrepair, presents significant development potential subject to obtaining the necessary planning permissions. This barn could be transformed into a variety of uses that align with modern agricultural practices or even residential conversion, making it an attractive prospect for investors or developers looking to capitalize on regional opportunities.
The soil type is classified as Barton—a well-drained fine silty soil—ideal for both pasture and potential crop cultivation. The property's elevation ranges from 190m to 320m above sea level, offering not only stunning views but also suitable grazing conditions that have been utilized for many years.
Access to the land is straightforward, with roadside access provided to all lots. While specific service connections have not been confirmed for this particular area of land, mains water and electricity are connected to adjacent lots. Additionally, a brook flows through several sections of the property, creating a natural water source that could be beneficial for livestock or future irrigation plans.
Prospective buyers should note there is a public footpath traversing parts of the property; however, this does not impede its investment potential. The sale includes any existing rights of way and easements which may affect the property’s use.
Importantly, any new owner would need to consider existing development plans or restrictions that could influence future projects on the site. Moreover, while sporting rights are included (where applicable), certain rights may be reserved by other parties.
With vacant possession available upon completion and the potential for substantial growth through thoughtful redevelopment or ongoing stewardship practice adherence, this property represents an excellent opportunity for those looking to invest in rural land with promising prospects in both agriculture and development. Viewings can be arranged strictly by appointment to ensure safety given some dilapidated structures present on-site.
