Located just south of Shillingford Abbot and under 3 miles from Exeter, this 5.22‑acre freehold parcel offers high‑quality Grade 2 arable land with gently sloping terrain and freely draining loamy soils. The plot has been cropped as part of a larger arable holding and has been used recently as game cover, making it immediately suitable for productive farming or continued agricultural rental. Mains water is available by connection to the supply that serves Lot 1 (connection requires installation of a stop‑cock and sub‑meter).
The land enjoys direct access from Waybrook Lane, mature hedged boundaries on three sides and open aspect to a larger arable field to the east. Its proximity to Alphington and Matford provides easy access to Exeter’s outlets and services while retaining a quiet rural character — useful for agricultural, amenity or some development potential (any non‑agricultural use would be subject to planning consent).
Important matters for buyers: the purchaser will be required to establish the boundary between points A and B on the sale plan; wayleaves and any public/private rights of way will pass with the property; sporting and mineral rights are included insofar as owned. The land is offered by informal tender (closing date Tuesday 10 June 2025 at 12pm) and is sold with vacant possession on completion.
This parcel will suit farmers, investors seeking productive Grade 2 soils near Exeter, or buyers looking for a long‑term rural asset with potential for alternative uses subject to planning. Viewings are by appointment only — take care when visiting farmland and around livestock or farm operations.
