Clipsal Wood offers a truly rare opportunity to acquire a well-established parcel of land that has been carefully planted and managed over recent years.

The site has been in the same family's ownership for more than 60 years and was formerly used as a flower nursery. Approximately 10–12 years ago, the owners began a programme of tree planting, introducing a wide range of species including silver birch, alder, oak, field maple, silver maple, rowan, hawthorn, blackthorn, hazel, weeping willow, crab apple, fig and wild cherry.

The ground layer is now populated by meadow grasses and wildflowers, with species recorded including poppies, Shasta daisies, dog rose and giant goldenrod.

The land is flat throughout with clear pathways leading in and around the stunning site via various wide rides and circular shady glades. These creatively planted areas are ideal for setting up camp with family and friends in summer months. As the trees and hedgerows mature in years to come, it will be fascinating to watch the character of the land evolve.

There are two storage sheds on the property, one of which contains a borehole that has historically provided a private water supply. Although it has not been used for some time, it may be possible to bring it back into use, subject to any necessary checks.

A small pond is located towards the centre of the site and contributes to the area's biodiversity. Wildlife is abundant, with regular sightings of muntjac and roe deer, badgers and foxes.

The property is conveniently located within walking distance of Soham, which provides a range of day-to-day amenities. Ely lies a short distance to the north, while Newmarket is easily accessible to the south.

Ward is Fordham & Isleham and the County Council is Cambridgeshire.
