Summary - THE SHAMBA, SHORT CAUSEWAY, ELY, COVENEY CB6 2DG
1 bed 1 bath Farm Land
Large-scale arable holding with high-quality soils and flexible lotting near Ely.
Approximately 43.19 hectares (106.72 acres) of productive arable land
A substantial block of productive arable land near Coveney, offered as four lots or as a whole, totalling approximately 43.19 hectares (106.72 acres). Soils are predominantly high-quality Peacock and Evesham series (Grades 1–3), with a recent cropping history including combinable crops, sugar beet, potatoes and maize. Several fields benefit from underdrainage and clearly defined BOAT access routes provide entry to parcels across the holding.
This opportunity suits an agricultural operator, investor or developer seeking a sizeable, workable holding close to Ely and within easy reach of Cambridge. The lotting provides flexibility to buy in smaller parcels or acquire the entire tract for scale farming. Lot 1 is currently SSTC and Lot 3 has been sold, so available acreage and lot configuration should be checked with purchasers before proceeding.
Buyers should note Lot 4 is subject to a 25-year Overage Agreement: if non-agricultural planning permission is implemented or the land is sold with such permission, 50% of the uplift (after allowances) becomes payable. Flooding risk is rated medium for the area; prospective buyers should review local flood maps and drainage plans. Access is primarily by Byways Open to All Traffic (BOATs); any operational use should consider public right-of-way and maintenance responsibilities.
Tenure is freehold. This is a pragmatic, large-scale agricultural investment with clear cropping history and good soils, but with planning overage on one small lot and some medium flood risk that will affect insurance and development potential.
