Bray Mill, which comes to the market for the first time in over a hundred years, is centred upon a stone built farmhouse with two separate ranges of traditional farm buildings and 57 acres of attractive pasture and woodland. The property enjoys an enviable location within the pretty village of Brayford, close to the Exmoor National Park. A superb combination of pasture, woodland and extensive frontage to the River Bray may appeal to agricultural, equestrian or amenity interests. In addition, the farm buildings offer excellent potential for development subject to obtaining any necessary planning consents.
In total, the farm extends to 57.17 acres and is offered for sale by private treaty in up to 8 lots.

This comprises one enclosure of gently sloping pasture with direct road access. The boundary is currently open to the woodland of Lot 8 to the east. If Lot 7 and Lot 8 are sold separately it will be the responsibility of the purchaser of Lot 7 to erect and maintain a suitably stock proof boundary.
Please Note:- Lot 7 is sold subject to an overage. Please contact the agent for further details.

In a conveyance dating from 1919, we understand the Glebe retains a right of access over the north-easternmost corner of the enclosure comprising Lot 6.

BASIC PAYMENT SCHEME
The farmland is registered to receive entitlement payments under the Basic Payment Scheme. BPS is due to end this year and Entitlements cannot be transferred after 15th May 2023. Therefore, no purchaser of the farmland can expect to receive entitlement payments under BPS in the future.
AGRI-ENVIRONMENT SCHEME
Excepting Lot 3, we understand that the pasture of all lots is subject to the terms of a Mid-Tier agreement (Ref. 1057117) under the Countryside Stewardship scheme. We understand that the land subject to the scheme is registered organic, although we have not had sight of any certification in this regard.
OVERAGE
It is the vendors’ intention to include an overage provision within the sale contract relating to Lot 4 and Lot 7. The finer details of the overage are to be confirmed, however they will dictate that a proportion of an uplift in value resulting from planning approval for residential development will be payable to the vendors (or their successors) within a specified period of time from the date of sale.
DESIGNATIONS
Though being a property of considerable history and enjoying a location immediately adjacent to Exmoor, the dwelling and buildings are not listed and all of the land lies outside of the National Park.

v.1.1- date produced 11.04.2023
The sought after village of Brayford provides a thriving rural community offering a primary school, village hall and High Bray Church, and in which Bray Mill has long formed an integral part. In the hundred years of the Prideaux and Huxtable families’ ownership of the farm, it has been used for dairy and sheep production while the River Bray powered the sawmill as recently as the 1950’s. Brayford is close to Exmoor National Park and surrounded by picturesque countryside that provides a wealth of recreational activities including walking, horse riding, and cycling. Swimming, den building and the village duck race have been enjoyed on the holding for many years.
Situated between the towns of South Molton and Barnstaple, the property is around 5 miles north of the A361 North Devon link road, providing good access to the wider highway network.
