Gently sloping pasture land and woodland near to the North Devon Coast. Approx. 57.95 Acres (23.44 Hectares). Would suit equestrian, conservation and agricultural uses. Views towards the sea on a clear day. Small area of woodland. Direct road access. Borehole water supply. Available as a whole or in two lots. For sale by private treaty. FREEHOLD.
Situation - The land lies in a fine position near to the North Devon coast within the North Devon Coast Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB) and with excellent access to the A39 which is within one mile of the farm.
Welcombe Mouth Beach is approximately 3 miles to the west and Hartland is approximately 6 miles to the north. The A39 links the port town of Bideford (16 miles) and the coastal town of Bude (10.5 miles).
Description - The land comprises approximately 57.95 acres (23.44 hectares) of productive grass land and woodland which lies about 200 metres above sea level and has views to the coast on a clear day.
The four main field enclosures are gently sloping and would suit agricultural and equestrian uses, with quiet lanes and bridleways nearby.
There is a wildlife pond and the current owner has observed an abundance of birds and wild animals throughout. Being near to a Site of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI) the land would also be of interest for ecology and environmental enhancement through conservation or tree planting.
