Approximately 19.08 acres of level, Grade 2 arable land immediately north of Castle Donington, offered freehold. The parcel is currently cropped with spring maize and benefits from roadside frontage and gated access from Back Lane, with mature hedges and hedgerow trees defining field boundaries. Soil types are predominantly freely draining floodplain soils, with pockets of slightly acidic loamy soils—suitable for continued arable use.
The land is sold subject to a Farm Business Tenancy; vacant possession will be available from September 2025 and the tenant may holdover to remove the standing crop. There are no known mains service connections and a public footpath (L86) crosses the east parcel. The site lies within Flood Zone 3, which may restrict non-agricultural development and affect insurance and planning prospects.
The sale includes sporting, timber and mineral rights (where owned) and is offered by private treaty with a guide price of £160,000. A development uplift clause applies: 30% of any value increase from development or planning (excluding agriculture and equestrian) is payable to the vendor for 30 years. Strong mobile signal and fast broadband in the area support rural business activity.
This holding will suit farmers, investors or landowners seeking productive arable ground on the edge of a village, but purchasers should factor in the tenancy timetable, the uplift clause and Flood Zone 3 constraints when assessing development potential.
