Summary - FLAT AT SHARDLOWES FARM, BALSHAM ROAD CB21 5DA
1 bed 1 bath Land
Productive farmland three miles south of Cambridge, ready for continued cropping or strategic holding.
83.62 acres of Grade 2 productive arable land
An expansive 83.62‑acre freehold parcel of Grade 2 arable land on Balsham Road, three miles south of Cambridge city centre. The level, well‑drained soils (Swaffham Prior series) suit a wide range of cropping and the block benefits from road frontage and clear access. The lot is split into two parcels in an L‑shape, separated by a public footpath, and borders a landscape‑scale biodiversity net gain site.
The land is offered with vacant possession and has been farmed by an outgoing tenant who may be interested in a continued arrangement. Drainage rates are payable to the Environment Agency; the seller will retain any historic delinked Basic Payment Scheme monies. The property is not currently entered into environmental stewardship schemes and all sporting, timber and mineral rights owned are included.
Important planning and practical considerations: the land lies in the Cambridge Green Belt, which will strongly restrict development potential. The sale is subject to existing wayleaves, easements, covenants and rights of way (notably public footpath 95/11). There are no buildings or residential curtilage included, and buyers should satisfy themselves on boundaries, services and access before exchange.
This lot suits active farmers seeking productive arable ground close to Cambridge, or strategic investors targeting long‑term land value and holding potential. Broadband speeds are very slow here, although mobile signal is excellent. VAT may be payable if the sale is deemed a chargeable supply — purchasers should take their own tax and legal advice prior to offer.
