An extensive mixed farm of about 68.65 hectares (169.64 acres) offered as freehold, set around Manor Farm in the quiet village of Wentworth near Ely. The holding is largely arable with pasture, divided into 11 enclosures, and includes a modern general-purpose farm building and small areas of hedges and ponds. Soils are Grade 3 Hanslope series, suited to high-yield cereal crops and productive grassland.
The land is let on a Farm Business Tenancy (FBT) which terminates on 10 October 2027; the tenant currently manages a Countryside Stewardship agreement and a successful game shoot. Any purchaser should note the holding is elected for VAT and VAT will be payable in addition to the purchase price. There are straightforward farming and investment prospects on vacant possession after the FBT expiry, or continued income potential while the tenancy remains in force.
Location benefits include proximity to Ely with its rail links to Cambridge and London, local state and independent schooling, and low local crime. The parcel is largely flat and accessible from Church Road, offering scope for continued arable production, pasture, or consolidation into a larger estate. No flood risk is recorded for the holding.
Prospective buyers should factor in the tenancy term, VAT election, and the current stewardship/game shoot arrangements when assessing immediate possession or income. The holding presents clear agricultural value with potential for long-term operational or investment uses.
