Description
The land is a single enclosure of permanent pasture extending to 6.73 acres (2.72 hectares) or thereabouts and benefits from three access points off of the public highway: Somerton Road, Ardley Road and Orchard Road.

It is understood that the land is designated within the Cherwell Conservation Area.
According to Natural England, the land is classified as Grade 3 on the Agricultural Land Classification maps, being free draining lime-rich loamy soils with moderate fertility.
The land is being marketed as agricultural but could be suited to equestrian use or alternative uses subject to obtaining the necessary planning consents.
Services
It is understood that the property does not benefit from any services. There is a well located in the property which has historically been used to pump water to supply the land.
Purchasers should make their own enquiries regarding the location of the mains service supplies. The cost of providing such services to the site will be at the purchaser’s own expense.
