DESCRIPTION / BACKGROUNDThe land extends in all to approximately 79.79 acres (32.29 hectares) of mixed arable and grassland, situated within a ring fence on the eastern edge of the village of Flixton and immediately to the north of the Yorkshire Wolds. The land benefits from extensive road frontage onto the A1039, together with good direct access and convenient links to the nearby A64. The land is generally level and is identified as Grade III agricultural land, comprising a useful range of soil types. These vary from productive, freely draining sandy loam soils towards the south of the holding to areas of lower lying, deeper peat soils. Historically, the land has been used for a range of arable cropping, including wheat, barley and potatoes, as well as permanent pasture. The combination of soil types and topography provides flexibility for continued arable production, grass cropping and livestock grazing. The holding is subdivided into three principal parcels and benefits from stock-proof fencing throughout. Its ring-fenced nature, good road access and location close to the A64 make it a practical and versatile block of agricultural land. LOCATION The land is situated in an attractive rural location positioned on the eastern edge of the small village of Flixton situated between Staxton and Filey.
