DESCRIPTION 

The land comprises a block of productive grass land which extends to 5.73 acres (2.32 Ha). The land has been used for grazing for a number of years and is currently divided into a number of useful paddocks which are ideal for grazing livestock or horses. The land is found in a well shaped and regular parcel with good access and a small area of seed woodland which was planned by the vendors in the South West corner.

On the North East corner of the land is a timber shed which could be further developed for a number of uses subject to the correct and relevant planning permission.

The land benefits from Mains Water. The water is currently sub metered. However, the vendor will install a water meter for the land once a sale has been agreed.

The boundary fences are in reasonable condition. However, the internal fences do need some maintenance. However, this can be tailored to suit the needs of the new owner.

The land will attractive a number of buyers including active farmers, investment buyers and those looking to re-wild.

The land is classified as Grade 3 in accordance with the Agricultural Land Classification Map.
