DESCRIPTION
The sale of land at Burgham represents an opportunity to acquire a sizeable block of bare agricultural land in an area which is both highly sought after and where opportunities of such are scarce.
The land totals approximately 14.95 ha (36.94 ac) and comprises 10.27 hectares (25.37 ac) of grade 3 arable land split into two sizeable parcels, surrounded by circa 4.68 hectares (11.57 ac) of shelter belt woodland.
Currently the land is utilised for agriculture and provides the ideal basis for a successful arable farming operation. The land has been well managed with regular inputs of fertiliser where and when required, whilst there has been regular general maintenance ensuring the property, in the main, is in good condition.
The boundaries of the land are stockproof consisting primarily of post and wire fencing as well as mature hedges. The land benefits from a private water supply to both parcels.
The fields are predominately flat and/or on a gentle gradient. They and are well-proportioned, enabling both an early growth and easy access for large modern machinery. The fields are also well sheltered either by trees or hedgerows.
The land may also suit a forestry and/or environmental investor who may wish to capitalise on the land’s residual productive nature, its excellent access and proximity to the local commodity markets. Whilst it may also suit an investor wishing to capitalise on the numerous secondary benefits of owning land.

The property benefits from excellent transport links, being accessed from the C137 public highway known as ‘East Road’ which in turn connects to the A1. The accessibility and scale of this property ensures that it would be a convenient addition to an existing business and could be farmed as part of a satellite operation.
