Situation
Crowtree Farm is situated in a well-connected area of the Lincolnshire Fens, to the north of Spalding and northeast of Moulton Seas End, with Holbeach approximately 7 miles to the southeast. The farm benefits from access via Marsh Road, a public highway that serves the property well. The A16 and A17 provide excellent road links to the wider road network. Spalding and Holbeach, both within easy reach, offer additional facilities and support for agricultural operations.

Farmyard
The central farmyard at Crowtree Farm is designed for practicality and functionality, featuring essential facilities for agricultural operations. These include a large portal-framed grain store, fitted with a ventilated underground wooden-slatted drying floor and serviced by three external propane tanks for efficient crop storage and drying. There is also a concrete hardstanding area, suitable for machinery storage, loading, and other operational uses. Additional structures include a portal framed general-purpose machinery shed for equipment and bulk storage, as well as a two-storey traditional brick building offering further storage and potential for alternative uses, subject to the necessary consents.

Farmland
The farm comprises approximately 380.35 acres of Grade 1 arable land, all contained within a ring fence. The land forms part of the Wisbech soil series, characterised by deep, stoneless, silty soils that are highly suited to a diverse range of crops, including high-value vegetables, brassicas, root crops and combinable crops. The fields are well laid out, being of good size and regular shape, enabling efficient farming with modern machinery. Access is straightforward, with fields served by either direct road access or well-maintained internal tracks, ensuring year-round operability. Additionally, the land benefits from effective drainage systems, typical of the Lincolnshire Fens, to support reliable crop performance.
