Detailed Description

INTRODUCTION The land at Stibbard comprises a particularly attractive and diverse block of land in the North Norfolk village of Stibbard, comprising a combination of productive arable land and woodland. The holding extends to approximately 39.89 hectares (98.57 acres) in total and is located between the A1067 (Norwich to Fakenham Road) and the Guist Bottom Road. The land offers exceptional amenity and environmental appeal in a private setting not crossed by public rights of way. The character and nature of the holding is well suited to purchasers looking for a ring fenced block of land to support biodiversity and wildlife interests with scope for further tree planting and other environmental initiatives. LOCATION & SITUATION The property is located in the village of Stibbard which offers a peaceful but accessible setting being approximately 4 miles south east of the market town of Fakenham which offers excellent local services. The popular town of Holt is 10 miles north east with its wide range of independent shops, cafes and art galleries. The surrounding area is well regarded for its scenic countryside, charming villages and proximity to the renowned North Norfolk coastline, much of which is designated a National Landscape and is known for its expansive beaches, nature reserves and coastal walks.

The property includes areas of woodland; there is an attractive block of approximately 1.76 hectares (4.35 acres) of ancient mixed deciduous woodland adjacent to which an area of approximately 2.80 hectares (6.92 acres) has been newly planted under the England Woodland Creation Offer (EWCO). The ancient woodland includes coppice, hazel and bluebells. This combination of schemes and management has generated significant income as well as environmental benefit and created an interesting combination of habitats and landscapes giving considerable amenity and environmental investment appeal. The size and nature of the land parcels give scope for further enhancement of the biodiversity and wildlife interest, or the land could be put back into arable production at the end of the existing environmental scheme agreements. The past arable cropping on the parcel which has been in a rotation (NG1258) is as follows:- 2021 Winter Wheat 2022 Winter Barley 2023 Oil Seed Rape 2024 Winter Wheat 2025 Spring Barley 2026 Clover Ley The land has been managed using contractors, an arrangement that the purchaser could continue for ease of management. The land is accessed via a number of field entrances off Guist Bottom Road and the A1067.
