Lot 4 at Vinesse Farm is a compact 22.79-acre block of Grade 3 arable land with direct access off the B1058. The parcel is currently in winter wheat and sits on Hornbeam 3 soil series, making it suitable for continued arable cropping or inclusion within a broader holding. The land is freehold, has no flood risk and benefits from local infrastructure on the wider farm such as borehole water and fast fibre broadband.
Income and scheme detail is material to value: the wider farm currently receives Countryside Stewardship payments (c. £21,923 pa) and two SFI agreements, but the SFI agreements may not be transferable and the stewardship payment runs to 31.12.2028. Part of the overall farm is contract-farmed under an agreement that includes a break clause after harvest 2026; purchasers should confirm how this affects possession for this lot.
Practical considerations are straightforward: the land lies within a Nitrate Vulnerable Zone, is offered with vacant possession subject to farming arrangements, and has no public footpaths across it. Drainage plans and further service details are available; mineral, sporting and timber rights are included as owned. This lot suits an arable farmer, neighbouring owner-occupier or investor seeking productive Grade 3 land with development potential only as part of wider planning permissions.
