£10m mixed-use farming estate with commercial income potential up for sale

A 878-acre mixed-use agricultural estate straddling Nottinghamshire and Lincolnshire has been listed for sale at nearly £10 million, presenting an investment opportunity for commercial and agricultural buyers.

The property includes Cowsland Farm and Lea Marsh Farm and is being marketed by Bidwells. It is available as a whole or split into four lots, offering flexibility for various acquisition strategies.

The estate features a combination of arable land, pasture, a residential farmhouse, and commercial buildings currently generating income. It has been under long-term ownership and professionally managed through local farming agreements.

The land is arranged in two main blocks: one near South Leverton in Nottinghamshire, and the other south of Gainsborough in Lincolnshire, alongside the River Trent.

Lot 1 spans 12.5 acres and includes a large farmhouse now tenanted, along with commercial buildings currently leased to Cranswick Pet Products, providing ongoing rental income.

Lot 2 consists of nearly 290 acres of arable land used for typical crop rotations such as wheat, barley, maize, peas, and oilseed rape. Fields are configured to suit modern machinery.

Lot 3, Forwood Farmland, is a standalone 92.5-acre arable block located near Treswell Wood. It offers scope for further agricultural or environmental use.

Lot 4, Lea Marsh Farm, is the largest portion with 484 acres primarily of pastureland and one arable field. Its riverside location and environmental characteristics may appeal to buyers pursuing biodiversity or natural capital projects.

The estate combines commercial, residential, and environmental value streams, making it suitable for diversified rural investment portfolios or strategic land acquisition.
