A strategic 2.17-acre parcel on Mancroft Road, Slip End, offering strong road frontage and practical access via a gated entrance. The site is mainly enclosed with mature hedgerows and fencing and sits opposite established detached homes, making it discreet yet highly visible to passing traffic.
The land falls within an 'inset' area of Green Belt, so normal planning policy applies; however, any development would still require the appropriate planning consents. Crucially, the site borders a proposed 158‑unit retirement care village (planning ref. CB/19/00032/FULL), demonstrating recent local appetite for residential schemes nearby and underlining potential development interest. There is no overage or clawback attached to the freehold — a notable advantage for buyers.
Suitable uses include grazing, smallholding or amenity/recreational purposes immediately; longer‑term development potential exists but is not guaranteed and depends on obtaining planning permission. Practical considerations: a right of way runs along the boundary and buyers should allow for survey and planning costs. The land’s proximity to the M1, Luton station and London Luton Airport makes it accessible for a range of buyers, from local smallholders to developers and investors seeking a sizeable, well‑located parcel in a constrained land market.
