Summary - Rowney Farm, Whepstead IP29 4TQ
1 bed 1 bath Land
Nearly 98 acres with arable land and buildings, suited to farming or redevelopment.
- About 97.64 acres of arable land (primarily Grade 2)
This sizeable freehold holding extends to about 97.64 acres and includes a range of modern and traditional agricultural buildings. The arable land is predominantly Grade 2 with Hanslope-series clay soils, and has been cropped in recent years with winter wheat, spring barley, peas and sugar beet. The lot is offered with vacant possession, making it suitable for an owner-operator, contracting farmer or an investor seeking redevelopment potential (subject to planning).
The buildings provide substantial storage and workshop space, some under metal roofs, and could support on-site operations or conversion where planning allows. The site benefits from a rural location close to Lawshall and within easy driving distance of Bury St Edmunds for services and transport links, with Stowmarket and the A14 accessible for longer commutes or distribution.
Buyers should note material facts: the EPC rating is E, the building fabric was constructed in the 1967–1975 period with double glazing installed before 2002, walls are cavity as built (insulation assumed absent), and heating is by LPG boiler and radiators. These aspects indicate energy and maintenance improvements will likely be required. No flooding risk is reported, and the area has very low crime and excellent mobile signal.
Overall this lot suits agricultural purchasers seeking well-cultivated Grade 2 arable land, or investors and developers looking for a large rural parcel with buildings and potential for change of use, subject to consents. Prospective buyers should factor in refurbishment, energy upgrades and planning constraints when assessing cost and use options.
