## Description

Versatile 3-acre rural holding with established game rearing structures and consent for agricultural shed and farmworker accommodation, offering scope for alternative uses (STPP).

About 3 acres.

For sale as a whole.

Location - The property occupies an attractive rural position approximately 3 miles south of Boroughbridge and around 1.3 miles from the village of Marton-cum-Grafton, with excellent connectivity to Junction 48 of the A1(M) motorway approximately 2.5 miles away.

Marton-cum-Grafton offers basic amenities including a village shop and public house, while a wider range of services can befound in nearby Boroughbridge and Knaresborough.

Access to the property is taken from the A1(M) and A168 via Priest Carr Land, leading onto Longlands Field Road and into a gated entrance.

Description - The property comprises a single paddock extending to approximately 3 acres (1.21 hectares), of level topography laid to grassland and is attractively enclosed by mature trees and established shrubbery.

The site is currently configured as a pheasant rearing unit, with 20 rearing sheds and adjoining outdoor pens providing capacity for up to 37,600 birds. Each rearing shed measures approximately 67 sqm (Gross External Area), to include the outdoor run area. The owner intends to rear one final crop between May and July 2026, following which the birds will be removed, and the rearing sheds will be available with vacant possession.

Water is connected via a borehole to a holding tank, located within a small hut measuring approximately 13 sqm GEA to the northern boundary, and electricity is provided by way of a single-phase supply. A surface water land drain runs across the land.

Planning Permission - Planning permission was granted retrospectively in 2020 (Ref: 20/01180/FUL) for the change of use of the land to pheasant rearing, including the retention of pens, runs and a shed, together with the erection of a storage barn, access track and associated landscaping.

Further consents were secured in 2023 for the siting of a temporary farmworker’s cabin during the rearing season (Ref: ZC23/01773/FUL), and for the construction of an agricultural building for general dry storage and incubation purposes (Ref: ZC23/02706/FUL).

Development Opportunity - Set in an attractive and peaceful rural location with open countryside views, the land at Longlands Farm benefits from excellent access to the A1(M), offering both seclusion and connectivity. In addition to its established use, the property presents a versatile opportunity with scope for a range of alternative uses (subject to the necessary consents), including leisure, equestrian or wider agricultural/commercial ventures.

The level nature of the land, together with existing power and water supplies and planning permission for an agricultural building and a farmworker’s dwelling, enhances its appeal for those seeking to diversify or develop a rural enterprise. As such, the holding is likely to attract interest from a broad spectrum of purchasers for agricultural, equestrian, commercial and leisure use, seeking a well-located and adaptable site.
