Productive Grade 3 arable land with SSSI meadow — 128.79 acres, stewardship in place.
Approximately 128.79 acres (52.12 ha) ring‑fenced arable and grassland
An extensive ring‑fenced block of productive Suffolk land extending to approximately 128.79 acres (52.12 ha), offered as a single freehold lot. The holding is predominantly arable (c.117.49 acres) on Grade 3 loam and clay soils, with six well‑shaped fields and direct highway access — suited to continued commercial cropping or inclusion in an operator’s estate. A valuable 11.30‑acre area of species‑rich unimproved grassland (Cransford Meadow) lies through the centre and is registered as an SSSI.
The land has been farmed to a high standard and was let under a Farm Business Tenancy; notice has been served to terminate the tenancy on 30 September 2025 (vacant possession thereafter). The property benefits from a Mid‑Tier Countryside Stewardship agreement in place until 31 December 2027 — the purchaser will be required to adopt its terms until expiry. Practical on‑the‑ground features include mature hedgerows, several established oaks, field ditches, a small brick outbuilding and water connected to a cattle trough.
Important constraints are stated plainly: the grassland’s SSSI status and the stewardship agreement impose management obligations; the vendor will place a restrictive covenant on three arable fields limiting their use to agriculture; sporting rights are included in the sale but reserved by the vendor for 20 years; and an Exclusivity Agreement with a 5% exclusivity fee is expected as part of the sale process. Buyers should also note the sale is subject to usual drainage rates, potential VAT liabilities and any planning or statutory designations.
This holding will suit commercial farmers, estate consolidators or investors seeking a substantial Suffolk arable block with environmental stewardship in place. Inspect the Information Pack for cropping history, drainage details and the draft Exclusivity Agreement before offer; viewings are by appointment with particulars in hand.
