Key Features

Knapton Estate provides a rare opportunity to acquire in a ring fence 1,228 acres of highly productive and versatile mainly arable land, in North Yorkshire.

The Estate is put to the market as a whole with two farmsteads and the expectation that buyers will offer for the whole or such parts as meet their requirements. The intention is to sell the whole Estate but with flexibility as to how it is divided.

For ease of identification, the Estate has been split geographically into 3 core blocks (please refer to the sales brochure for further details):-

Block 1 Central 662.43ac with 2 homesteads of Guild House and Elm Tree Farm
Block 2 Northern 223.98ac Grade II arable land north of the railway
Block 3 Southern 342.24ac lighter arable and grass south of the A64

The two homesteads have large attractive farmhouses and an excellent modern range of buildings which could form the hub of a wider arable operation or more intensive enterprise. The land is varied from Grade II root land north of the railway to the lighter soils towards the A64 where the outdoor pigs are run. The Estate lies in North Yorkshire centred on the linear hamlet of East Knapton which is between Malton (8 miles) and Scarborough (15 miles). Access is straight forward with long road frontage to the A64 and the B1258 which runs through to Yedingham. For those seeking a composite large arable holding or to expand an existing business, the Knapton Estate is an exciting opportunity.

In all 1,228.65 acres (497.22 hectares) or thereabouts
