16.69 acres (approx.) of productive arable land on the Isle of Axholme, offered freehold either as a whole or in up to four lots. The soils (Blackwood and Worcester associations) are described as deep, permeable sandy/coarse loamy and reddish clayey soils suitable for cereals, sugar beet, potatoes and winter cereals — a genuine working block for cropping or contract farming. The land is classified part Grade 2 and part Grade 3 and is registered on the Rural Payments Agency Rural Land Register; purchasers should verify Basic Payment Scheme entitlements and LPIS details before tendering.
This sale is by Informal Tender with a closing date and specific submission requirements; early entry can be permitted subject to exchange and a double deposit (20%). The site lies within a designated Nitrate Vulnerable Zone and is subject to normal wayleaves, rights of way and outgoings including the local Water Level Management Board. A telephone cable crosses Lot 1.
Suitability is broad: established farmers, expanding holdings or investors seeking arable income will find immediate cropping potential. The land is sold with vacant possession and freehold title, but note practical limitations: very slow broadband, average mobile signal and environmental constraints associated with NVZ designation. Prospective buyers should inspect soil, drainage and entitlement records and be prepared for the tender conditions, VAT implications and customary easements.
