About this listing

A substantial block of easily accessible cropping land, suitable for a range of uses Description The holding comprises an attractive and substantial block of Grade 3 agricultural land situated on the edge of the popular Cheshire villages of Crowton and Norley. The land extends to approximately 75 acres in all and benefits from access directly from the public highway. Occupying an appealing position within the rolling Cheshire countryside, the property enjoys a peaceful rural setting whilst remaining conveniently located for the market centres of Northwich and Middlewich. The land has historically formed part of a combinable cropping enterprise and presents an opportunity to acquire a versatile and productive parcel of agricultural land in an area where opportunities of this nature rarely come to the open market. The land extends in all to approximately 75 acres and lies to the west of Norley Lane. The property is gently undulating throughout and is bounded predominantly by mature hedgerows and established field boundaries, creating an attractive and sheltered farming unit with a strong traditional Cheshire character. The land is classified as Grade 3 under the Agricultural Land Classification system and is described as a combination of freely draining sandy soils in the southern section and loamy and clay-based soils to the north. The fields are generally of a good size and shape for modern farm machinery and are connected by internal field gateways, enabling efficient day-to-day management. The land has previously supported potato production and is currently managed within a rotation including spring wheat, winter barley and temporary grass leys, demonstrating its versatility and productivity. The property offers purchasers the opportunity to continue an established arable operation, diversify into mixed farming, grassland enterprises or pursue environmental and natural capital opportunities, subject to any necessary consents. Opportunities to acquire a contiguous block of productive agricultural land in this area are increasingly rare, and the property represents an appealing combination of accessibility, quality soils and long-term management potential. The land is available as a whole, or in three lots. Lot 1 comprises two good sized and workable field enclosures together with a small broadleaf coppice, creating a diverse and attractive parcel of land. The fields benefit from excellent roadside access and have been managed within an established arable and temporary grass ley rotation. Boundaries comprise mature hedgerows together with stock fencing, providing good enclosure and definition. Lot 2 comprises a gently rolling block of productive arable land with direct roadside access from Norley Lane. The field benefits from mature hedgerow boundaries and a regular shape well suited to modern agricultural operations. The enclosure is currently managed within a combinable crop rotation and offers an efficient and easily managed parcel suitable for extension to an existing farming business or as a stand-alone acquisition. Lot 3 is similarly well laid out, gently sloping throughout and accessed independently from Norley Lane. The field benefits from mature hedgerow boundaries and a regular shape well suited to modern agricultural operations. Location The property is located off Norley Lane, between the villages of Crowton and Norley, in a highly regarded part of central Cheshire. The surrounding area is characterised by a mix of productive farmland, mature hedgerows, woodland and rolling countryside, creating an attractive and well-established agricultural landscape. Norley village lies approximately 0.9 miles to the east and provides a range of local amenities, whilst the larger towns of Northwich and Middlewich offer extensive retail, educational and commercial facilities. The area benefits from good connectivity to the wider regional road network, including the A49, A556 and M56, providing convenient access to Chester, Warrington, Manchester and Liverpool.
