Nearly 28 acres of productive arable land adjoining Kingsdon Wood — tender by 27 June 2025.
Approximately 27.98 acres (11.32 ha) of productive arable land
A rare single parcel of productive arable land extending to approximately 27.98 acres (11.32 ha), situated in a private elevated position adjoining Kingsdon Wood. The gently sloping loam and clay soils have been well managed as part of an arable rotation and are currently planted with a maize crop (crop may be retained by the vendors or purchased by separate negotiation). The parcel offers straightforward farm-use potential or long-term holding value for an agricultural investor.
Access is from Huish Road by a public highway, then along an unregistered trackway over which a right of way is claimed by statutory declaration. There are no known services to the site and the land is registered with the RPA but not entered into agri-environment schemes. The land is offered freehold and the vendors reserve the right to lease it back short-term if sold before harvest to allow completion of the maize crop.
Important constraints are noted: part of the northern boundary lies within Flood Zone 3 and the land falls within a Nitrate Vulnerable Zone (NVZ), with part designated as coastal and floodplain grazing marsh habitat. These environmental designations and the absence of services will affect use and any development potential — purchasers should carry out their own due diligence with regard to planning, drainage and environmental restrictions.
Tenders are invited by informal tender by 12 noon on 27 June 2025. The site can be viewed on foot at a reasonable time with a copy of the particulars. This lot will suit a farmer seeking productive arable acreage nearby Somerton, or an investor looking for a rural landholding with immediate cropping value and medium-term options subject to planning and environmental constraints.
