An extensive 240.77-acre agricultural portfolio across five lots, offered freehold either as a whole or in lots. Productive Grade 3 and Grade 4 soils, mixed arable, pasture and c.7 acres of maturing woodland provide immediate cropping and grazing potential. The blocks are accessible from local lanes and the A372, with strong mobile connectivity despite slow broadband.
The land has been farmed under contract and currently produces crops including winter wheat, linseed and maize; two parcels received land drainage in 2018. Part of the holding benefits from panoramic ridge-top views and areas with environmental and conservation potential; Lot 4 in particular combines sloping permanent pasture and loamy clay fields suitable for diverse uses.
Buyers should note several practical constraints: mains water is not currently connected (a main runs adjacent to Lots 3 and 4), some parcels lie in a surface water NVZ, and a public footpath runs along Lot 5 by the River Cary. Mineral rights are reserved over parts of Lots 1 and 2, and an overage clause affects one parcel in Lot 1 until 10/11/2028.
Agricultural schemes are in place: a Mid Tier Countryside Stewardship agreement runs to 31/12/2027 (transferable to the buyer pro-rata) while a Sustainable Farming Incentive agreement currently appears non-transferable and may be terminated. Holdover to harvest will be reserved for growing crops; completion is anticipated September 2025. This offering suits commercial farmers, investors and amenity buyers seeking scale and immediate productive land with scope for stewardship or conservation projects.
