About this property

  • Red House Farm is a light land irrigated farm ideal for the growing of vegetable crops with cereals also featuring in the rotation. The land has recently been cropped with potatoes, parsley, sugar beet, winter wheat and barley. The arable land is occupied by a local farmer under a Farm Business Tenancy until 30th September 2026.

    Although the land benefits from irrigation infrastructure and an abstraction licence, the abstraction point does not fall within the ownership of Red House Farm and hence water is currently brought on to the farm by the tenant who is a neighbouring landowner.

    The soils are of the Tendring Series being a stoneless course loam. Approximately 40% of the land is classified as being Grade 1, 40% being Grade 2 with the balance towards the western boundaries being Grade 3.

Red House Farm really is a very special property and its sale represents something of a rarity - a farm for sale on the Shotley Peninsular. Offering amenity value as well as commercial opportunity, it is sure to appeal to a wide range of buyers.
