    About this property

      Opportunity to acquire 3.7 acres (1.5 hectares) or thereabouts of agricultural land with the benefit of planning permission for residential development.

      **For sale by informal tender**

      The Site
      Moat Farm extends to 3.7 acres (1.5 ha) or thereabouts and is situated on the northern side of Kirton Road, Egmanton. The site comprises a range of traditional farm buildings, now in disrepair and requiring redevelopment. To the north of the buildings lies a paddock and area of spinney which is included within the sale boundary.

      The site rises gently from its southern boundary to its northern edge. At the highest point, near the northern boundary, the ground sits at approximately 50 m above Ordnance Datum (aod). From there the site falls by around ten metres over a distance of roughly 200 m, reaching about 40 m aod at the southern edge. This north-to-south gradient is shallow.

      Constraints
      There are small pockets of Flood Zone 2 touching the southern edge, covering just 0.19 % of the total site area. The remainder of the land sits safely within Flood Zone 1.

      Adjacent to the Site are several listed buildings: Portland farmhouse (170.45m southeast, Grade II), church of st mary (246.72m east, Grade I), island farmhouse (59.67m south, Grade II), barn south east of stone house (67.02m southwest, Grade II), and stone house (98.36m southwest, Grade II).

      The Site is entirely identified as a coal mining reporting area.

      The land is located within a conservation area and lies close to several listed buildings; however, the physical and environmental constraints are relatively modest and largely manageable through considered design, standard mitigation and early technical due diligence.

      Planning
      The site is located within the jurisdiction of Newark and Sherwood District Council and benefits from planning permission for “Conversion of farm buildings to two dwellings (Plots 2-3) and rebuilding of one barn on existing footprint to form one dwelling (Plot 4). Replacement dwelling (Plot 5) and two new cart sheds.” (Planning ref: 23/00709/ful).

      The application was granted in May 2024 subject to conditions, including commencement of development within three years. The permission will expire in May 2027. In April 2025, a submission was made to discharge condition 6, which related to biodiversity enhancement and mitigation. The condition was partly discharged, more information can be found on the local authorities planning portal, or can be provided by the agent.
