Description
For Sale by In Room and Livestream Auction on Wednesday 23rd July 2025 at Batch Country House, Batch Lane, Lympsham, Nr Weston-super-Mare, Somerset, BS24 0EX at 2pm
DESCRIPTION
An opportunity to acquire an attractive single parcel of generally level woodland, which comprises a mixture of mature and semi-mature
deciduous trees. Situated on the outskirts of the ever popular Chew Valley and the village of Hinton Blewett, the woodland demands
exceptional views of the surrounding countryside, to include the Mendip Hills National Landscape and the wider Chew Valley area.
The woodland extends to approximately 6.75 acres (2.73ha) or thereabouts and benefits from direct roadside access onto Sutton Hill Road to the east, as well benefitting from secure boundaries in the form of mature hedgerows and stock fencing to parts. The woodland is ideally
suited to a range of agricultural and amenity uses, subject to obtaining the necessary statutory consents.
The woodland has been well managed across a previous number of years, which can be demonstrated by regular thinning. The woodland also benefits from an area of clearing towards the southern boundary, which now comprises grassland, (as pictured).
SERVICES & OUTGOINGS
The woodland does not benefit from any main services or natural watering.

GUIDE PRICE*
An indication of the seller’s current minimum price at auction. The guide price of range or guide prices is given to assist consumers in deciding whether or not to pursue a purchase. It is usual, but not always the case that a provisional reserve range is agreed between the seller and
the auctioneer at the start of marketing. As the reserve is not fixed at this stage and can be adjusted by the seller at any time up to the day of
auction in the light of interest shown during the marketing period, a guide price is issued. This guide price can be shown in the form of a
minimum and maximum price range within which an acceptable sale price (reserve) would fall, or as a single price figure within 10% of which
the minimum acceptable price (reserve) would fall. A guide price is different to a reserve price (see separate definition). Both the guide
price and the reserve price can be subject to change up to and including the day of the auction.
RESERVE PRICE
The seller’s minimum acceptable price at auction and the figure below which the auctioneer cannot sell. The reserve price is not disclosed and
remains confidential between the seller and the auctioneer. Both the guide price and the reserve price can be subject to change up to and
including the day of the auction.
