Description

This extensive land parcel at Mill House Farm presents a unique opportunity for investors or those looking to develop agricultural ventures. Spanning approximately 236.09 acres, the holding features a diverse landscape including Grade 2 arable land, grassland, and varied woodland. With its river frontage along the River Derwent and direct access to the A1079, this property not only offers immediate agricultural utility but also significant potential for enhancement and diversification into other uses. The Scoreby Estate, located just east of York, is rich in history and provides an expansive agricultural setting ideal for future investment. The terrain consists of fertile soils conducive for crops such as cereals and vegetables, alongside areas suitable for livestock grazing. Given its size and location near key transport links—including easy access to York and Hull—this estate has strong commercial appeal. Included within the estate are several farmstead units featuring traditional brick buildings alongside modern farm structures. There is potential for refurbishing existing properties or developing new ones to maximize returns on investment. Further opportunities may arise from leveraging the fishing rights along the riverbanks or exploring eco-tourism within the scenic surroundings. As it stands, this property remains primarily under tenancy agreements set to expire in 2026; however, this provides a stable income stream while planning future developments or improvements—making it an ideal proposition for individuals seeking long-term investments in rural land.
