Description

Summary

Lot 2 comprises the principal agricultural and sporting element of the Hinchwick Manor Estate, extending to approximately 833 acres. The land forms a cohesive and well-balanced block of productive Cotswold farmland, combining arable cropping, pasture and established woodland.

The arable land is well suited to modern farming practices, while the pasture provides flexibility for grazing or wider amenity use. The surrounding woodland and natural topography create an attractive and private landscape, with excellent scope for the development of a first-class private shoot, together with wider recreational opportunities.

At the centre of the holding lies Alders Yard, a well-equipped farmstead with a comprehensive range of modern buildings. These include grain storage facilities for approximately 3,000 tonnes, multiple wet bins, grain drying infrastructure, livestock buildings, straw storage and silage clamps. The yard is well positioned for efficient management of the surrounding land.

A detached bungalow provides residential accommodation within the lot, suitable for a farm manager, staff or ancillary use.
