About this property

  • Extending to about 77.06 acres (31.19 hectares) in total, the property is split into two Lots:

    Lot 1: Land adjoining Peter's Farm - 62.86 acres (25.44 hectares) - Guide price £600,000

    Accessed off the Helmdon to Sulgrave road, the land is all down to grass and benefits from consent to erect a farm building close to the road. A decision was made that prior approval was not required, thereby allowing for the proposed 30 metre by 12 metre building to be erected. There is also an open fronted timber field shelter.

    Lot 2: Part Allithorne Wood - 14.2 acres (5.75 hectares) - Guide price £150,000

    Forming part of the Allithorne Wood, this is an attractive block of deciduous woodland comprising Oak, Ash and Sweet Chestnut with an understorey including Field Maple, Hawthorn, Holly and Hazel, with a ride through it. To the southern end of the wood, there is a cabin of timber frame, timber cladding and fibre cement roof construction which was used for storage and occasional accommodation in relation to a charcoal burning business which was previously run from the wood.
