About this property

Extending to approximately 115.9 acres (46.9 hectares), the Land at Fritwell has been farmed under an arable rotation. The land is well suited to modern machinery, split into six large fields by mature hedges and benefits from good road access off the B4100, East Street and the Souldern Road.

The land is located between the villages of Fritwell and Souldern, north-east of Bicester on the Oxfordshire / Northamptonshire border. The land is approximately 1.7 miles from Junction 10 of the M40 and 1 mile from the A43.

The freehold of the property is offered for sale with vacant possession from 29th September 2023. All of the land is currently farmed on a Farm Business Tenancy ending on 29th September 2023.
The land has historically been registered for payments under the Basic Payment Scheme and all the Entitlements relevant to the land belong to the outgoing Tenant and will not be available to the Purchaser on completion of the sale. For the avoidance of doubt, the outgoing Tenant will retain the 2023 payment in full.
According to the Soil Survey of England and Wales, the majority of the land lies over Aberford soils. Aberford soils are known to be freely draining lime-rich loamy soils suitable for arable and grassland. The soils are classified as being Grade 3.
The whole property falls within a Nitrate Vulnerable Zone.
The Vendors will retain an overage / uplift provision whereby they will benefit from 30% of any uplift in value arising from the implementation of any planning permission for any change of use or development of the site with the exception of agriculture or equestrian. This overage period will be 20 years from the date of sale.
