Summary - Lot 3: Land At Cruxton Manor Farm, Cruxton, Dorchester, Dorset, DT2 DT2 0EB
1 bed 1 bath Land
Large, freehold 46.43-acre arable parcel in attractive West Dorset countryside.
46.43 acres productive Grade 3 arable land
Lot 3 is a productive, freehold parcel of Grade 3 arable land extending to 46.43 acres. The block is level to gently sloping, south-facing in parts and described as easily workable with good cereal yields; a maize crop was grown in 2025. The farm lies within attractive West Dorset countryside close to Maiden Newton, with good road links to Dorchester and established local services.
Practical advantages include vacant possession on completion, entitlement to sporting rights (deer stalking included) and entry in a Countryside Stewardship Agreement that supports environmentally favourable management. Early entry to establish spring tillage is permitted at the purchaser’s risk and cost. The site is registered on the Rural Land Register and sits within the Dorset National Landscape, giving amenity and landscape value.
Important constraints are factual: delinked Basic Payment Scheme payments have been retained by the vendor, fishing rights on the River Frome are excluded, and a public footpath crosses the lot. Part of the holding lies within a Nitrate Vulnerable Zone, and stewardship obligations may limit some farming options. Broadband is very slow locally and mobile signal is average, which may affect on-site technology or remote working.
This lot suits arable farmers, mixed farmers or investors seeking a substantial, productive block in West Dorset. Its combination of scale, proven cropping history and countryside setting offers clear working value, but buyers should factor stewardship conditions, retained BPS payments and public access into their proposals.
