About this listing

For Sale by auction: 4.84 acres (1.96 hectares) of mixed replanted and mature woodland located in a peaceful, rural location within Dorset's National Landscape. The Land - A unique opportunity to acquire 4.84 acres (1.96 hectares) of mixed replanted woodland. The woodland consists of mature conifers and a mixture of native broadleaf trees and shrubs replanted since 2004. The sensitive thinning of Norway Spruce and replanting has allowed for open spaces and paths to be created, allowing bluebells and wild garlic to flower in the spring months. There are seasonal brooks which run through parts of Northlode Wood, adding to the bio diversity of the woodland, which is enjoyed by over 60 bird species recorded on the property. The woodland benefits from a hardcore track from the highway to the entrance of Northlode Wood, where there is space for parking. Situation - The woodland enjoys a private, rural position. The County Town of Dorchester is 11 miles to the south and the popular Abbey Town of Sherborne is 8 miles to the north. Both offer a great range of amenities, including supermarkets, leisure facilities and mainline rail stations. Lyons Gate campsite is a short distance from the woodland and The Hunters Moon pub, located in Middlemarsh, is within walking distance via a public footpath which runs adjacent to the northwest boundary. Directions - From Dorchester, take the Westleaze road north towards Sherborne for approximately 11 miles. At the A352 junction, turn left towards Lyons Gate, approximately 900 metres from the turning, the access is found on the right-hand side. Access - The property is accessed with and without vehicles via a shared track leading from the public highway, shown marked brown on the sale plan. Tenure And Possession - Freehold with vacant possession upon completion. Public Rights Of Way - None. Environmental Schemes - The land is not entered into any Countryside Stewardship Agreements or Woodland Grant Funding Schemes or similar. Designations - All of the land lies within the Dorset National Landscape (previously Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty) and is designated as Ancient Replanted Woodland. Sporting, Timber & Mineral Rights - All sporting, timber and mineral rights are understood to be owned, and are included in the sale insofar as they are owned by the vendor. Local Authority - Dorset Council - Agent's Notes - Yellow markers on trees and posts indicate the boundary of Northlode Wood. Please see the legal pack regarding the access and maintenance responsibilities. What3words - ///clarifies.albatross.televise Solicitors - Nantes Solicitors Simon Harvey - simon.
