Description

The sale of this land is a unique opportunity to purchase a useful block of agricultural land totalling situated on the outskirts of the popular village of Malpas. The land as a whole totals 25.71 Acres (10.40 Ha) and the majority of the land (20.99 Acres) is in grass. Whilst it has most recently been utilised for mowing and grazing the land would be well suited to arable rotation or for equestrian use. The land is classified as Grade 2 and 3 and is slightly acid loamy and clayey soil.

To the south is an area of rough grassland and woodland which totals 4.72 Acres, this area offers a natural habitat for a huge variety of animal and birdlife and is a haven of peace and tranquillity.

Given the proximity of the land to Malpas village and its location on the fringe of the village there may be long-term development potential, subject to the necessary planning consents.

Tenancy

The land is let on a grazing and mowing licence until the 31st October 2025. Vacant possession will be available after this date.

Woodland Creation Scheme

The area of partial woodland to the south was planted with the assistance of a woodland creation grant. The buyer will be expected to meet the obligations of this scheme until its termination.

Overage

The seller will enter into a deed of overage with the buyer, this shall be 30% of the uplift in value on achieving any planning permission for use other than for agricultural or equestrian purposes, within 30 years of the sale date.
