Lot 5 is a substantial 12.19-acre parcel of permanent pasture on the edge of Oundle, offered with attractive Grade 2 soils and well‑drained Sutton 1 series loams. The land is split into two fields by hedgerows and ditches, with a river boundary providing scenic views and potential equestrian or agricultural uses. Access is via a shared right of way across a bridleway off the A605.
Practical strengths include good arable potential for cereals, potatoes and some vegetables, existing entry in a Mid‑Tier Countryside Stewardship scheme (runs to 31 December 2027) and inclusion of sporting, timber and mineral rights insofar as owned. No mains services are connected and the land is in a Nitrate Vulnerable Zone (NVZ); drainage rates are charged by the Environment Agency. Two public footpaths cross parts of the wider sale area.
Buyers should note material restrictions and liabilities: the sale is subject to a 25‑year overage on future non‑agricultural development (25% of value uplift on qualifying consents), and the Sustainable Farming Incentive agreement is not transferable. There are no mains services and broadband is slow; mobile signal is average. Flooding risk is medium in parts. Purchasers must also budget for ingoing valuation costs for growing crops, inputs and recent cultivations where applicable.
This lot suits farmers, equestrian users or investors seeking large amenity pasture with development potential subject to planning and overage. Prospective purchasers are advised to make their own planning enquiries with North Northamptonshire Council and inspect the stewardship commitments and legal rights of way before offer.
