28.74 acres of productive pasture with direct road access and strong grazing potential.
28.74 acres (11.63 ha) productive pasture in four enclosures
A useful block of productive pasture extending to 28.74 acres (11.63 ha), split into four conveniently sized enclosures and accessed directly from the public highway. The land is bounded by mature hedgerows, has water troughs in most fields and sits within the Dorset National Landscape, offering attractive rural amenity and good grazing potential.
Practical considerations: the soil is a slightly heavier loam/clay with more impeded drainage than other parts of the wider holding, so fields may hold water after prolonged rain. There are public footpaths and byways crossing the land and a historical water-supply arrangement (currently without charge for most lots) which is understood to end in around ten years; no guarantee is given that the present arrangement will continue.
The sale is freehold with vacant possession. There are no Basic Payment Scheme entitlements or environmental scheme agreements included. Sporting, timber and mineral rights are understood to be included. Purchasers should allow for ingoing valuations to cover any growing crops, fodder or acts of husbandry at completion.
This parcel will suit farmers, small-holding buyers or investors seeking pasture close to Dorchester and Sherborne. Broadband is very slow and mobile signal average; the immediate area is rural and tranquil but relatively remote, so buyers should check services and access requirements before bidding.
