- Strategic A3052 frontage near Exeter and M5 links

This is a substantial freehold block of productive pasture at Grindlebrook, Clyst St Mary, offered in two lots with direct road frontage to the A3052 and Oil Mill Lane. The land is level, historically managed as flood plain with sluices, and currently in grass — suitable for grazing or continued agricultural use. Lot 2 (5.15 acres) has mains water connected and immediate highway access; Lot 1 comprises the remainder (31.99 acres) and is offered separately.
The site sits within an area under consideration in local planning documents and is identified in the East Devon draft plan for the Clyst Valley Regional Park Land; this strategic position may support wider land-use opportunities. At the same time, the land is designated Flood Zone 3 in the adopted local plan — a material constraint for development and will influence insurance, drainage and planning assessments.
The sale is freehold with sporting and mineral rights included insofar as owned. Vendors will retain the delinked Basic Payment Scheme payment for 2025 and the land is sold without BPS entitlements; an existing stewardship agreement expires in 2024. The property will be offered with vacant possession on completion.
Suitable buyers include farmers seeking productive pasture close to Exeter, and investors or landowners considering long-term strategic holdings linked to local planning changes. Viewings should be undertaken with care around drainage features — sluices and historic flood-management infrastructure are present on the land.
