This substantial single parcel extends to approximately 60.64 acres (24.54 hectares) of prime Grade 1 arable land on the outskirts of Ardleigh. Currently in potato cropping, the plot is flat, fertile and well worked, offering immediate agricultural production potential for farming enterprises or arable investors seeking high-quality soils close to Colchester.
The land is offered freehold with direct access from Morrow Lane and Little Bromley Road and benefits from fast broadband, average mobile signal and low local crime. A minerals option is already in place and there is no identified flood risk, reducing some operational uncertainties. Its location in an affluent, established farming community and proximity (circa 6 miles) to Colchester make it accessible while remaining rural and quiet.
This holding will suit established farmers, growers and investors looking for long-term arable investment or consolidation of existing landholdings. Any buyer considering non-agricultural development should note the land’s current agricultural classification: planning consent would be required for change of use or building, and such applications can face restrictions in this countryside location.
Offers are to be submitted as a Best and Final by the stated deadline. Buyers should also take account of the existing minerals option and undertake their own due diligence on planning, rights of way and any cropping contracts before exchange.
