Large riverside arable parcel with road access — suited to farming or long-term investment..
11.56 acres of arable land in a bend of the River Thames
An 11.56-acre arable holding in a bend of the River Thames, offered freehold with direct access from Ferry Lane (A4094). The land sits within mature hedgerows and adjoins approximately 0.36 acres of deciduous woodland (pending first registration). It is currently entered in an environmental scheme and is suited to modern machinery, making it straightforward to manage as productive farmland or keep in its current stewardship.
There are clear location advantages: edge-of-settlement position between Bourne End and Cookham, river-side character, public footpaths and nearby leisure amenities such as sailing and golf. The parcel is registered under title BM420288; vacant possession will be given on completion and the current Farm Business Tenancy is scheduled to be surrendered on 30 September 2025.
Buyers should note material constraints. The land lies in Flood Zones 2 and 3 and is within a Radon Affected Area and a Nitrate Vulnerable Zone. No services are known to be connected, and there is a restrictive covenant limiting building unless plans are first approved by the previous vendor’s architect. An electricity substation located within the woodland is excluded from the sale.
This lot will suit farmers, amenity land buyers or investors seeking a sizeable riverside agricultural parcel with conservation value. It is not a straightforward development opportunity due to planning restrictions, flood risk, environmental designations and the existing covenant.
