Approx. 11.21 acres (4.54 ha) of south-facing pasture
Lot 2 at Steppes Farm is a south-facing pasture parcel extending to approximately 11.21 acres (4.54 ha), offering level to gently sloping, free-draining chalk/limestone soils (Grade 3). The field is productive for forage, benefits from existing fencing and a private water supply, and includes sporting, timber and mineral rights. Its size and soil type make it suitable for grazing, forage production or small-scale diversification such as equestrian use or amenity pasture.
The land is sold freehold with vacant possession available from 1 November 2025 (currently let under a Farm Business Tenancy; notice served). It lies within the Dorset National Landscape and a Nitrate Vulnerable Zone, so future development or intensification may be constrained by local landscape and nitrate regulations. There are no Basic Payment Scheme entitlements included and the land is not subject to environmental stewardship agreements.
Practical points: access arrangements depend on adjacent lot ownership — a right of access will be granted over the northern edge of Lot 3 if Lot 2 is sold separately, and a gate must be installed at a designated stockproof point. Broadband speeds are very slow; mobile signal is excellent. The guide price excludes VAT. This lot will suit a buyer seeking a sizeable, productive pasture parcel with good natural drainage and straightforward agricultural value, or an investor looking for long-term rural holding potential, subject to the landscape and nitrate restrictions.
