DESCRIPTION - AUCTION GUIDE £140,000
The land comprises a rare mix of permanent pasture, coastal belt and beach and presents a unique opportunity to own part of the South Devon coastline and shore. The eastern paddock gently slopes to the west and is currently down to permanent pasture and has been predominantly used for grazing in the past. It makes an ideal grazing field as it is a single paddock. In all 19.61 acres.
Access to this land can be gained through the double gateway which is located in the far eastern corner of the pasture land. The coastal belt and beach/rocks is accessed by an attractive track in the south western corner of the pasture land. The track has been cut over the years and epitomises a coastal scene with many wildflowers and plants growing in its hedges. From this area there are beautiful views to the north west of Plymouth sound, the Breakwater and Drakes Island, in a peaceful and secluded location.
PUBLIC RIGHTS OF WAY
There is a public footpath which runs directly along the periphery of the pasture land and there is a public coast path which links Heybrook Bay and Bovisand, running along the western boundary of the coastal belt.
SERVICES
There is a mains water supply to the main paddock.
