Prime long-term holding close to Workington with potential subject to planning.
Approximately 17.76 hectares (43.88 acres) of productive permanent pasture
A substantial 17.76-hectare (43.88-acre) block of productive agricultural land on the southern edge of Workington, offered with potential for future residential development subject to planning. The parcel lies close to town amenities and major trunk roads (A66/A595), making it an attractive long-term holding for investors or developers exploring perimeter expansion opportunities.
The land is Defra Grade 3 with slowly permeable, seasonally wet, acidic loamy soils and is currently permanent pasture. It benefits from a natural water supply and generally level ground, simplifying agricultural use or masterplanning for larger-scale schemes. Past local-plan designation and previous developer interest indicate development has been considered, but any new scheme would require fresh planning submissions and council discussions.
Practical considerations are clear: access is from the public highway then field-to-field, there are no Basic Payment Scheme entitlements included, and the freehold is offered without clawback provisions. Tenure details are recorded as unknown in the sale particulars, and buyers should satisfy themselves on rights of way, easements and legal matters before offer.
This site suits investors or developers prepared to lead a planning process or purchasers seeking a long-term land asset with strong transport links, excellent digital connectivity and nearby services. Its size and location give scope for multiple future uses, but value is contingent on securing planning and resolving access and legal matters.
