Coloured Purple on the attached plan. About 65.83 acres (26.63 hectares)
Superb carp fishery lakes, currently tenanted, which are located close to the sought after village of Standlake and offer a significant investment income. The lakes form part of Eagle Farm which is being offered for sale either as a whole or in up to 6 Lots (see separate listings for details of all the other Lots available)

* Witney 6 miles

* Didcot 15 miles (Trains to London Paddington 40 mins)
Comprising Oxlease Lake, Hunts Corner Lake and Hunts Corner Pond together with the surrounding land, the fishing lakes are operated as part of the wider Linear Fisheries complex, which is regarded as one of the best day ticket Carp fishing venues in the country. The operator currently provides 40 swims on the well-stocked Oxlease Lake, which has a Common Carp Lake record of over 52 lb. Hunts Corner Lake currently provides 10 swims and has a Common Carp record of over 45lb. Hunts Corner Pond is stocked with Roach, Rudd and Perch with some Carp.
The Lakes are leased to the current occupier on a 25 year lease from 2019, but with a break clause upon 18 months notice. The Lakes are therefore appealing either as an investment property or alternatively to a hands on operator. The Carp fishery stock belongs to the Tenant and are specifically excluded from the sale. There is the ability under the terms of the lease to elect to purchase the fish stock at a price equivalent to 22.5% of their valuation upon the determination of the lease. Further details with regards to the lease and rental are available from the Agents for interested parties.
Tenure and Possession
Lot 6 (The Fishing Lakes) are let by way of a lease dated April 2019 for a period of 25 years.

The rent for the Fishing Lakes is comprised of a Base Rent and a Turnover Rent, further details, for interested parties, are available from the Agents. In addition to the Operators Lease and Freehold, there are various 990year underlying lease arrangements which will also form part of the sale.
