A productive 3.05-acre amenity grassland parcel on the southeastern fringe of Barnard Castle, well positioned for equestrian, grazing or biodiversity enhancement. The land sits level at about 150–155m above sea level, is bounded by hedgerows and trees, and benefits from Grade 3 Wick 1 soils and good road access from Westwick Road.
This is a straightforward freehold purchase with vacant possession and a granted right of access along a maintained private track. There are no services to the site, so any water or power connections would need to be installed. The vendor includes sporting and mineral rights insofar as owned and confirms no known subsidy or grant claims.
Commercially important points are the sale being subject to a 30-year overage clause: 50% of any uplift from non-agricultural/equestrian planning permission will be payable to the vendor. A contribution to the private track’s maintenance must also be agreed. Viewings are on foot and at the viewer’s risk; note open ditches and livestock hazards.
This plot will suit buyers seeking rural grazing, amenity or small-scale equestrian use close to town, or investors wanting a strategic edge-of-town landholding with potential for environmental enhancement. It is not serviced land and carries legal encumbrances buyers must factor into value and future use planning.
