Land Pt Bowhayes Farm, Culmstock, Cullompton, Devon, EX15

An attractively situated enclosure of pasture land together with a useful field shelter, hardened yard area and small copse, benefitting from direct road access. Extending in total to approximately 5.74 acres.

DESCRIPTION
A rare opportunity to purchase an attractive block of land situated a short distance from the popular village of Culmstock in Mid Devon. The block extends in total to approximately 5.74 acres or thereabouts, and benefits from direct gated road access from the Council lane to the south.

To the south-eastern corner of the land is a useful area of hardstanding, upon which is situated an adaptable 2-bay timber framed field shelter with a mono-pitched profile steel roof.

To the southwestern corner of the land is a small unmanaged area of copse and scrub, with various deciduous trees, adding to the land’s general amenity and environmental appeal.

The pasture field runs to the north, with a gentle northerly aspect, bounded by mature treed bank and hedgerows.

The land is bisected by a public footpath, which crosses through the centre of the field running north/south, providing convenient access on foot to the village of Culmstock which lies around 0.9 miles to the north by road (0.45 miles via public footpath).

There is a livestock drinking trough within the hardened yard area, which is currently fed from a piped natural spring fed supply (the continuance and reliability of this natural supply cannot be guaranteed).

The land affords significant appeal to those with agricultural, equestrian, environmental, horticultural or general amenity interests (subject to any necessary planning permissions where applicable).

SITUATION
The property occupies a delightful rural position close to the favoured historic village of Culmstock (0.9 miles by road), with its café/shop, pub, Church, village hall and Primary School. The town of Cullompton lies around 7 miles to the south-west, affording a more extensive range of retail, recreational and scholastic facilities. Lying around 6 miles distant is Junction 27 of the M5 motorway together with mainline rail connections available adjacent to this junction at Tiverton Parkway.

SERVICES & OUTGOINGS
We understand that no mains services are currently connected to the property. The land currently has a drinking trough which is fed by a piped natural spring water supply arising on and piped via neighbouring third party owned land. The land will be sold with the benefit of rights to continue drawing piped water from this source, however the reliability of any such natural supply of water cannot be guaranteed.

Guide Price: An indication of the seller’s current minimum acceptable price at auction. The guide price or range of 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 the 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.
