Lake 95 offers a truly unique opportunity to purchase an unspoilt nature haven with immense and varied development potential (STP).

Lake 95 covers an area of approximately 85.77 acres (34.71 ha). The property was historically earmarked to be mined for gravel and minerals alike, a process which has created the whole of the Cotswold Water Park as we now know it however, after mining commenced it transpired that the gravel was not of sufficient quality.

The current owner purchased the lake 18 years ago and since then the Lake and its immediate surroundings have been in the process of being unintentionally rewilded, with minimal livestock grazing and no application of chemicals or sprays. A number of horses have been allowed to graze the land which have created a myriad of paths and trails around the property, each leading to an opening or viewpoint over a lake each more picturesque and tranquil than each other.

The property benefits a free and unencumbered access directly off the council maintained highway to the south however a second new access could easily be created (STP) off Friday Ham Lane which leads directly onto the Spine Road.

To the east of the property lies the main lake extending to approximately 9 acres with a substantial and completely untouched island extending to approximately 1.6 acres. There are a number further lakes and ponds dotted around the property, the size of which fluctuates dependant on the season. As well as still water there is a flowing freshwater stream known as Wheatleys Brook which crossed the width of the property providing constant fresh water to the
main lake and beyond.

The Cotswold Water Park, with its 150 individual lakes, is situated between the attractive former Roman market town of Cirencester in Gloucestershire to the north and the urban conurbation of Swindon in Wiltshire to the south, covering about 40 square miles and attracts over 500,000 visitors annually. The area offers a wide variety of activities which include angling, birdwatching, cycling, horse riding, water
sports of all descriptions and walking.

The location is excellent with the property lying only approximately 50m off the well known ‘Spine Road’ being the main trunk road passing through the Cotswold Water Park. The Spine Road services
surrounding Holiday Parks, The De Vere Hotel, Cotswold Water Ski Club and provides direct access to the A419 dual carriageway being 1.5 miles east and onto the M4 about 17 miles south and the M5 Junction 11A being about 23 miles north. The property sits directly on the Wiltshire/Gloucestershire border and lies entirely within Wiltshire.

A three-phase electricity supply is connected to the pump house on the western boundary. Mains water is available nearby, purchasers are to make their own enquiries.

Leave the A419 when signposted for Ashton Keynes & South Cerney, continue west along the Spine Road for approximately 1.5 miles. Turn left onto Fridays Ham Lane. After 50m the northern edge of the property can be found however to access the property continue for 0.5 miles past ‘JK Bistro’ formally known as ‘Jennies Kitchen’, take your next left then the property can be found on your left indicated by a Woolley & Wallis sale board.
