Description

A strategically positioned parcel of land located between the Oxfordshire villages of Ardley and Fewcott with development and alternative use potential (subject to planning).

Extending to approximately 6.73 acres (2.72 hectares).

Location - The land is situated respectively between the Oxfordshire villages of Ardley and Fewcott, and benefits from three separate access points from the public highway. Both Ardley and Fewcott provide a basic range of local amenities, with the market town of Bicester (4 miles southeast) offering a wide variety of everyday services, amenities, and employment opportunities.

The land benefits from excellent road links with the A43 and B4100 in immediate proximity, and Junction 10 of the M40 situated approximately 1 mile northeast. Bicester and Milton Keynes provide access to mainline railway services running to London Euston, London Marylebone and Birmingham New Street.

The location is shown on the plan.

Description - The land is a single enclosure of permanent pasture extending to 6.73 acres (2.72 hectares) or thereabouts and benefits from three access points off of the public highway: Somerton Road, Ardley Road and Orchard Road. The land benefits from a mixture of post and wire stock fencing and mature hedgerow and tree boundaries throughout. The property is relatively level, with a well situated within the property. It is understood that the land is designated within the Cherwell Conservation Area.

According to Natural England, the land is classified as Grade 3 on the Agricultural Land Classification maps, being free draining lime-rich loamy soils with moderate fertility.

The land is being marketed as agricultural but could be suited to equestrian use or alternative uses subject to obtaining the necessary planning consents.

Services - It is understood that the property does not benefit from any services. There is a well located in the property which has historically been used to pump water to supply the land.

Purchasers should make their own enquiries regarding the location of the mains service supplies. The cost of providing such services to the site will be at the purchaser’s own expense.

Tenure & Possession - The land is being sold Freehold from Title Number ON289027. The intention is to exchange and complete as soon as practically possible. Vacant possession will be given upon completion.

Easements, Wayleaves & Rights Of Way - The property can be accessed via three separate access points: one from Orchard Road, one from Ardley Road and one from Somerton Road, with a gateway providing access into the land.

There are several public rights of way crossing the property from south to north.

The land is sold subject to and with the benefit of all easements, wayleaves and rights of way that may exist at the time of the sale whether disclosed or not.

Sporting & Mineral Rights - Where Sporting and Mineral Rights are owned, they will be included in the sale.

Overage Clause - The property will be sold with an overage clause to reserve 30% of any uplift in value attributed to each and every change of use or planning permission for a period of 30 years on the land. For the avoidance of doubt, the overage will not be triggered by any agricultural, equestrian or forestry use. Full details will be provided within the legal documentation.
