Lot 1
Extending to approximately 23.35 acres (9.45 hectares)
[Shaded Red on the Sale Plan]
A significant enclosure of high quality, Grade 3, meadow land, capable of arable/ maize cropping, together with a further parcel (3.73 acres) of sound pasture. Lot 1 lies to the direct east of Chapel Lane, offering potential for residential ‘ribbon development’ [subject to the necessary consents].
The land benefits from mains water supplies.
Access to the meadowland is provided via two entranceways: off Chapel Lane to the west and Yenham Lane (double-gateway) to the north. The access points are marked ‘A1’ & ‘A2’ on the enclosed sale plan. The parcel of pasture land is accessed via a sole gateway along its southeasterly boundary.
The boundaries comprise predominantly mature hedgerows, with some sections of post/ wire fencing. Whilst largely stockproof, some lengths of the hedgerow boundaries would benefit from internal fencing.
Please note that the area hatched pink on the second plan enclosed within these particulars of sale is subject to a clawback agreement. The overage payment equates to 25% uplift in the value of the land, due on the earlier of either commencement of development or the grant of any planning approval of any non-agricultural or equestrian use for a period of 20 years, from the date of completion.
Lot 2
Extending to approximately 4.75 acres (1.92 hectares)
[Shaded Blue on the Sale Plan]
An excellent single field enclosure of good quality meadow land, of high amenity value, extending in all to approximately 4.75 acres. The parcel is classified as Grade 3 under the Agricultural Land Classification. The parcel benefits from mains water supplies.
Access is provided via a gateway positioned along the field’s westerly boundary, directly onto Church Grove and marked ‘A3’ on the sale plan. A further gateway is present along the southerly boundary, leading onto the adjoining trackway.
The boundaries consist of mature hedgerows, which are considered stockproof. Please note, however, that there is no physical boundary present along the northern edge of parcel, which directly adjoins Lot 1 (between points ‘B’ & ‘C’ on the sale plan). It will be incumbent for the successful purchaser of Lot 2 to erect a stockproof fence along this boundary section within 2 months from the date of completion.
