Overview

This most useful parcel of arable land, totaling 102.99 acres (41.68 ha) and with long road frontage, will be offered for sale by public auction (subject to prior sale, reserve and conditions) at 6:30pm on Tuesday 23rd September 2025 at The View, Hill Farm Marina, Stratford Road, Wootton Wawen, Warwickshire, B95 6DE (///glance.dance.rival).

INTRODUCTION

This good-sized parcel of arable land has excellent frontage to Wawensmere Road with a partly stoned access track, providing vehicular access to the land. Although having historically been farmed as one block, it could easily be sub-divided into more manageable sized enclosures.

Mainly level, the land is bounded by both woodland and neighbouring open farm land, it is classified as Grade 3 under the DEFRA land classification system, 'A gravelly marl, capable of growing heavy combinable crops.'

Situated to the north-east is a former marl pit, which could be further developed for wildlife conservation purposes, as could the other former ponds on the land.

Conveniently situated between Stratford upon Avon, Redditch and Henley in Arden, the block gives a wide range of purchasers the opportunity to acquire a good sized parcel of arable land, the likes of which rarely become available in this area.

There is easy access to both M42 (J3) and M40 (J15) motorways, whilst the A435 and A46 are all within easy travelling distance.

The conditions may also be inspected in the Sale Room at the time of the sale, but they will not then be read.

Money Laundering
Money Laundering Regulations have been introduced by the government, affecting auctioneers, under the Proceeds of Crime Act 2002/Money Laundering Regulations 2007.

Agent's Note
The guide price offers an indication of the price below which the vendor is not willing to sell. It is not necessarily the exact final sale price and is subject to change prior to and up until the day of the auction. Any change in the guide price will reflect a change in the reserve (a figure below which the auctioneer will not be able to sell). The reserve can be expected to be set within the guide range or not more than 10% above a single figure guide (RICS Common Auction Conditions 7th Edition).
