Armitstead Barnett has a deep-rooted history in the North-West of England rural property sector, with a vast knowledge in rural property and legal matters.  We are increasingly working with more and more Rural Property Portfolios and Rural Estates across Lancashire and Cumbria, assisting with strategic decisions to fit with their longer-term business objectives, being the chosen agent to assist with land and property lettings, planned residential, agricultural and commercial sales, individual development plot sales and longer-term development aims.

Our vast knowledge of the marketplace and expertise within rural property matters helps meet client’s  objectives, whilst managing and negotiating the intricacies of rural legalities.  For example, the sale of a small estate cottage, parcel of land or building plot, requires the appropriate method of sale (Private Treaty, Informal Tender or Auction), suitable timing and the best marketing campaign.  Such property also requires a full understanding and discussions regarding accesses, public rights of way, existing easements and wayleaves, longer term property uses or restrictions, restrictive covenants, rights reserved over property, overage clauses, planning, sporting rights, boundaries, listed buildings, services, Basic Payment Scheme and Environmental Stewardship, etc.  Ensuring all these matters are accounted for and managed effectively, allows for a successful sale and longer-term management of the Portfolio or Estate as a whole.

If we are able to assist you with your rural property, please do call our experienced, Surveyor led team.
