Lot 2: Pasture Land extending to about 0.90 Acres - Guide Price OIEO £30,000

This sale represents a unique opportunity to acquire either one or two attractive parcels of agricultural land occupying convenient and yet tucked away positions close to the sought after village of Croyde. Both lots enjoy superb views over Croyde Bay towards Lundy, with the range of hills known as Saunton Down forming a backdrop. Divided into two separate lots, the larger block of land (Lot 1) enjoys access over the track known as Withywell Lane, whilst the smaller parcel benefits from access over another pretty track known as Somerthing Lane. In recent years the land has been primarily utilised for livestock/pony grazing and fodder production.
Forming two separate blocks the land comprises traditional pasture well suited to fodder production and livestock grazing, although its convenient location, superb views and aesthetic appeal may also make the land suitable for a variety of other agricultural, equestrian, camping, conservation or amenity uses, subject to obtaining any necessary planning consent.
Extending in total to about 5.64 Acres (2.28 Ha) the land is offered for sale as a whole or in two lots, as shown on the attached identification plan and described within these sale particulars.

Occupying a convenient position the land lies immediately to the south of Croyde, within the attractive band of countryside between the village and the low range of hills known as Saunton Down, an idyllic location within easy reach of both the village centre and popular sandy beach. Both lots are accessed over trackways which lead from Croyde Road, the main route through the village. Please Note:- Whilst passable with small vehicles the lanes leading to the land are narrow and prospective purchasers are strongly advised to initially approach the land on foot if wishing to view.
Croyde lies within the North Devon Coast Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and is considered one of the most desirable coastal locations in the West Country, its picturesque bay facing the Atlantic and being internationally renowned for its surfing. The pretty village itself forms an attractive mix of traditional picture postcard cottages and modern contemporary homes, whilst also providing a useful range of everyday services including a post office, general store, village hall, restaurants and public houses, as well as surf shops. The nearby larger village of Braunton provides a wide range of local amenities, including primary and secondary schooling, whilst Barnstaple affords a more extensive range of commercial, educational and recreational facilities befitting those of an important regional centre. From Barnstaple the A361 North Devon link road provides easy access to South Molton, Tiverton and the M5 motorway (J27). Mainline intercity rail links are available at Tiverton Parkway (London Paddington approx. 2 hours) with international airports at Exeter and Bristol.
