Description
Park Farm is a wonderful opportunity to acquire an idyllic working farm being 743.66 acres (300.94 hectares) in total including arable, woodland, grassland, farm buildings and tracks.
The land gently undulates sloping to the River Wensum on the south side which provides over 2km of river frontage with single bank fishing rights. Fields are predominantly large and accessed directly from the public highway or by internal tracks.
The majority of the arable land is productive grade 3 with the soil described by the Soil Survey of England and Wales as Burlingham 1 being a deep coarse and fine loamy soil suitable for the growing of cereals and sugar beet.
The land has been farmed on a regenerative and sustainable basis utilising cover crops and livestock in the rotation on the arable land. The pasture has been grazed by the Vendor's cattle and sheep. All the arable fields have had water troughs installed supplied by the mains. Recently livestock fencing has also been installed around the arable fields. The system has produced tangible improvements to soil fertility and organic matter.
The farm is within a mid-tier countryside stewardship scheme and the Sustainable Farming Initiative. The Vendor has substantially improved the amenity and environmental benefits of the farm establishing new hedges and trees. New farm tracks have been put in giving excellent internal access.
These improvements together with its rural setting and river frontage have enhanced the flora and fauna. There are no public footpath's so the minimal disturbance has created a haven for wildlife.
Marsh Cottage is a wonderfully positioned period cottage, enjoying a south facing position, with fine views over water meadows to the river Wensum and countryside beyond.
Acreage: 744 Acres
