Slealands Burn, offered in Lot 1, is a substantial former dairy farm set across c.103.68 acres of predominantly Grade 3 agricultural land. The holding includes a very well-presented four-bedroom farmhouse (Lane End), a two-bedroom cottage (Slealands Burn), an extensive mix of modern and traditional agricultural buildings and two large slurry stores. The farmhouse benefits from oil heating, mains water with borehole backup, private sewerage and an established wrap-around garden with extensive parking.
This lot suits active farmers, livestock producers or investors seeking productive arable/grassland and ready-made livestock infrastructure. The modern cubicle sheds, parlour with 16/16 Westfalia milking plant and substantial slurry capacity support dairy or large-scale livestock operations immediately. Ring-fenced land with direct public highway access and recently maintained fences/hedgerows adds practical farm management value.
Buyers should note material considerations: some roofs use asbestos/fibre cement, one grain tower is redundant and the outdoor silage pit requires remediation per Environment Agency instructions before further use. Broadband is very slow and EPC ratings vary (D and F). The lot is sold with certain environmental agreements, SFI transfer limitations and the seller retaining delinked Basic Payment; any growing crops and silage must be purchased on completion.
The property will be sold by private treaty (offers invited) and may be suitable for sale as part of a larger holding. It is presented as an operational farm with immediate potential, but purchasers should carry out their own checks on services, septic tank compliance, planning, and the listed environmental remediation requirements.
