The land is situated just under 2 miles to the south-west of the rural village of Dartington, with the popular market town of Totnes being approximately 3 miles to the east. The land directly adjoins the A385 Dartington to South Brent/Marley Head road to the south.
The land extends to approximately 0.45 acres (0.18 hectares) of sloping permanent pasture conveniently directly adjoining the northern side of the A385 Dartington to South Brent/Marley Head road. The land is bordered by a solid hedge to the east and a hedge bordering Bidwell Brook to the North. The south and west boundaries are currently unfenced but marked by wooden stakes. The purchaser will be required to erect a sheep netting and two strand barbed wire fence on tanalised wooden posts on the boundaries A-B and a gate along the boundary within 30 days of completion. The land offers potential for agricultural, amenity, recreation and equestrian use, subject to any necessary consents and permissions being obtained, as well as being ideal to use as a garden/allotment area. There will be a full legal right of way to purchasers at all times and for all purposes from the gateway to the land (hatched in yellow on the identifying plan).
There is a restrictive covenant on the land prohibiting permanent buildings or structures. (NB The previous owner who put the covenant on the land has confirmed that they would be willing to remove the covenant. However, the prospective purchaser would be required to pay the necessary legal fees to have the covenant removed. The vendor cannot guarantee the covenant will be removed. This will be for the buyer and their legal advisors to investigate.)
The land is not currently connected to a water or electric supply, although it is understood that there are supplies in the vicinity of the land. Purchasers are required to make their own enquiries.
The land is not believed to be registered for the Rural Payments Agency's Basic Payment Scheme and therefore no entitlements are included in the sale. The land is not believed to be currently in any Stewardship Schemes.
The property is sold subject to any Rights of Way, Wayleaves, Rights or Easements which exist at the time of sale whether they are mentioned in these particulars or not.
Freehold, with vacant possession upon completion.
