Large freehold block with strong road access and commercial cropping potential.
34.53 acres of productive Grade 3 arable land
This is a single 34.53‑acre freehold arable field on the north‑eastern edge of Wheldrake village, with good road frontage onto Wheldrake Lane. Soils are Grade 3, well‑bodied and under‑drained, proven productive for spring barley, wheat and other arable cropping. Current crop is an AB15 legume mix under SFI, providing a ready entry for next season.
Practical considerations are clear and factual: the seller will retain the 2025 Basic Payment (BPS) and any subsequent de‑linked payments; the land is not offered with mains water or electricity; an overhead electricity wayleave generates a payment; and a public footpath and a water‑main easement cross the eastern end of the field. Drainage rates are payable annually.
This holding suits commercial arable operators, owners seeking an investment in productive land, or those looking to consolidate nearby holdings. Sporting and mineral rights are included as owned. The land is offered chain‑free with vacant possession on completion and is registered on the Rural Land Registry.
Buyers should factor in the retained subsidy payments, absence of on‑site services and the recorded rights of way/easements when assessing value and future plans. Excellent mobile signal supports remote monitoring or farm management technology, but broadband speed is very slow in this location.
