Lot 5 at Woodhouse Farm is a substantial block of productive pasture extending to approximately 27.44 acres, offered freehold with mains water and good roadside access from Woodhouse Lane. The land is divided into three field enclosures, bounded by hedgerows and tree-lines, and benefits from an elevated position with long-distance estuary/coastal views. Two footpaths cross the site north–south, adding recreational access but also indicating public rights of way to consider.
The parcel is well suited to grazing, mixed smallholding use or continued agricultural enterprise. The undulating, productive nature of the fields and existing boundary planting provide useful shelter and natural subdivision for livestock. Mains water on site is a practical advantage for livestock or smallholding uses and the plot size offers scope for long-term diversification or incremental improvement.
For buyers considering change of use or development, the land’s size and proximity to Milnthorpe mean residential conversion or plot subdivision could be a future option, but any such proposals would be subject to planning consent and local authority requirements. The location is relatively remote within established farming communities, so purchasers should allow time for statutory searches, planning enquiries and any required infrastructure upgrades.
This lot will be offered by informal tender (deadline 12 noon Wednesday 12th November 2025) with a guide price of £300,000. The holding represents a rare, large-scale rural opportunity close to village amenities, with low local crime, excellent mobile signal and fast broadband, while retaining a distinctly pastoral, countryside character.
