Approximately 22.08 acres (8.94 ha) of enclosed grassland
Set within the quiet village of Oakerthorpe, this single block of approximately 22.08 acres (8.94 ha) is predominantly grassland enclosed by mature woodland. The parcel is divided into two similar-sized paddocks, offering immediate potential for grazing, hay production or small-scale equestrian use. Vehicular access is in place via a formal right of way from the B6013 and the site sits under two miles from the A38, giving practical links to Derby and the M1.
The land’s Grade 4 soils are described as freely draining slightly acid loamy soils, providing a long grazing season and suitability for spring/autumn-sown crops under certain rotations. It is offered freehold with vacant possession, and sporting, timber and mineral rights (so far as owned) are included. A public footpath follows the southern and part of the western boundary, and a telecommunications mast sited at the southwest corner is excluded from the sale and remains subject to a formal lease.
Potential purchasers should note material constraints: the land lies within a surface water Nitrate Vulnerable Zone (NVZ), which may affect fertiliser and land management regimes, and there are no guaranteed utility connections — buyers must satisfy themselves as to available services. The Grade 4 classification means the ground is better suited to grazing and hay rather than intensive arable production. The combination of size, location and good transport links will appeal to agricultural, equestrian or amenity purchasers seeking an uncluttered rural holding close to local services in Alfreton.
