Description

Although recognised as a 'Farm', Jose Lomas Farm is actually close to 14 acres of meadows and woodland with an existing brick-built building plus stable and barn rather than a working farm with accommodation. The land currently houses horses and pigs and in addition to the buildings there is a water supply and power is provided via a LPG gas fired generator. Recent planning decisions have confirmed that further agricultural buildings could be erected without requiring planning permission under the Agricultural Permitted Development rules (see application DC/087808) for full details. Also, following an appeal that was lodged against declined permission to convert the existing stables into a farm house, it has been hinted that temporary rural worker accommodation MAY be approved and more permanent rural worker accommodation might be considered should a rural business become 'established' on the site (see Appeal Ref: APP/C4235/W/25/3362376 for full details). Obviously, any interested party should make their own enquiries to confirm their requirements for the land are appropriate. NOTE: Thomas Lardner are currently offering the adjoining property; 'Far Away Cottage' for sale also.

Flood Risk

Environment Agency open data, checked around the advertised map pin for the listed acreage. Long-term risk counts flood defences; the planning map's flood zones do not. The map pin for this listing marks the postcode area rather than the exact location, so these readings describe the surrounding area. Provided by LandSale, not the listing agent, and not part of the agent's particulars. Risk varies across a holding, so verify before committing.

Rivers and the sea

Very low risk

Planning map: Flood Zone 1.

Surface water

High risk (1 in 30)

Not at the pin: mapped about 100 metres away.

Important notice: Information, maps and tags on this page are drawn from the advertising agent's marketing materials or generated automatically. LandSale has not verified them. Relying on these details is at your own risk, always carry out independent checks before committing to a purchase.
