A productive single-field parcel extending to approximately 14.71 acres (5.95 ha), offered freehold and lying on shallow, well‑drained Andover 1 series soils. The arable land (Grade 3) has been in long‑standing arable rotation and is suited to cereals and short‑term temporary grass; a c.0.67 acre woodland belt provides shelter, biodiversity and a degree of screening. Direct road access and open rural views across the Lincolnshire Wolds present straightforward farm management and recreational opportunity.
This holding is well suited to a smallholding, continued arable production or as a land investment. The land is outside built-up areas within open countryside (East Lindsey LPA) and sits in a largely agricultural landscape; any non‑agricultural development would require planning consent and is subject to an overage clause (30% of net uplift for non‑agricultural or forestry use payable to vendors for 30 years).
Buyers should note practical and legal considerations: a public footpath crosses the field; the outgoing tenant retains the right to harvest and remove the current crop by 30 September 2024; the purchaser will be responsible for drainage rates from completion; the land is sold with existing wayleaves, easements and rights of way. There are no known services on site and the land is not entered into Environmental Land Management Schemes.
Overall, this is a straightforward, sizeable arable parcel with productive soils and clear access for agricultural use or long‑term holding. It offers immediate cropping potential for experienced farmers and investment appeal for those seeking exposed countryside acreage, while buyers must accept medium flood risk, slow broadband and the stated legal encumbrances.
