Summary - Lot 4 | Over Hall, Colne Engaine, Colchester, Essex, CO6 CO6 2HW
1 bed 1 bath Land
Compact productive block with direct roadside access and woodland features.
44.73 acres of mixed arable, grassland and woodland
Lot 4 is a compact, productive block of arable, grassland and established woodland extending to 44.73 acres, accessed directly off Over Hall Road. The soils are Grade 3 (Hornbeam 3 series), with part currently cropped with oilseed and some Cricket Bat Willow producing occasional contract income. A spring-fed pond and belts of mature trees add environmental and amenity value.
The land is currently held under a Farm Business Tenancy (tenant farming under contract) and is included in a countryside stewardship scheme applied for by the tenant; stewardship income is payable to the tenant and the tenancy runs until notice can expire in September 2027. The farm lies within a Nitrate Vulnerable Zone. There is good road access and fast broadband in the area; flood risk is nil.
This lot suits an agricultural investor or owner-occupier seeking immediate scale and flexible future options — cropping, woodland management, or inclusion in wider estate holdings. Practical matters include public footpath access nearby, potential boundary fencing obligations against adjacent lots if purchased in division, and the need to factor in the existing tenancy and stewardship incomes when budgeting acquisition returns.
Viewing and purchase should take account of the active tenancy and environmental scheme arrangements. Mineral, sporting and timber rights are included where owned, and purchasers will be expected to verify boundaries on the ground prior to completion.
