A substantial agricultural holding of 61.26 acres (two lots) in Motcombe offering productive Grade 3 pasture and arable potential. Lot 1 extends to 44.33 acres with a useful 4‑bay concrete‑frame farm building, yard area and a small pond; Lot 2 extends to 16.93 acres and includes the metered mains water connection (easement to be reserved if sold separately). Both lots have direct access off the B3081 and sit within the fertile North East corner of the Blackmore Vale, with good natural shelter from mature hedgerows and attractive countryside views.
The land is practical for grazing, mixed farming or amenity/woodland management. Soils are Kimmeridge Clay and Gault (ALC Grade 3) and the topography is level to gently sloping; a head of the Fern Brook runs through Lot 1. Services are limited to a metered mains water supply; there are no public rights of way across the land and the site is not within a National Landscape or Nitrate Vulnerable Zone.
There is vacant possession on 30 March 2026 on cessation of the current tenancy — buyers should factor this occupation date into plans. The sale comes with no overage imposed by the sellers. Broadband speeds are very slow at the site and the water meter sits in Lot 2 (an easement will be reserved for Lot 1 if sold separately), which are practical matters for some purchasers.
This offering will suit farmers, investors or purchasers seeking a substantial roadside block in a favourable grass‑growing area, with immediate usable buildings and yard. Guide prices: Lot 1 (44.33 acres plus barn) £425,000; Lot 2 (16.93 acres) £180,000.
