JOHN Clegg and Co are instructed to handle the sale of Reece’s Wood at Twyford Common, an attractive rural woodland just south of Hereford.

The woodland comprises 12.6 acres (5.13 hectares) of Ancient Woodland with a mix of oak, ash and hazel. The Ancient Woodland designation applies to woodland which have been under native tree cover since 1600 AD.

Overall, Reece’s Wood offers purchasers an opportunity to add value through silvicultural activities. Those looking to provide material for the small scale biomass market need look no further. Sporting rights are also owned and included in the sale.

Mike Tustin of John Clegg and Co commented: “The market for woods and commercial plantations throughout the UK has strengthened considerably in the past two years in strong contrast to other sectors of the property market. Reece’s Wood offers a good opportunity to acquire a rural slice of Hereford, whether for amenity, conservation, wildlife interest, timber interest or other reasons. Its attractiveness has been demonstrated by the high number of viewings resulting in five offers in just over three weeks.”

Reece’s Wood was launched on the open market mid-February and due to the level of interest expressed so far the vendors have now set a closing date for best offers to be received by noon on March 23.
