An attractive, well-located block of amenity pasture, woodland and historic fishing ponds extending to approximately 11.26 acres (4.56 ha) just south of Old Alresford. The parcel offers direct road access from the B3046, two separate entrances, mains metered water and free-draining soils — a versatile rural holding for grazing, equestrian use, conservation projects or reinstatement of the former fish ponds.
The site’s mix of open pasture, copses and ponds has supported low-impact leisure uses in the past (events, camping, nature studies). Those activities — and any restocking or commercial use of the ponds — would be subject to whatever planning and environmental permissions apply, so prospective buyers should allow time for consents. There is a third-party right of access along the main northern track and purchasers will be responsible for all boundary fences.
This is a discreet, wildlife-rich site with strong road links to New Alresford and the A31/M3 corridor. The land presents opportunities for biodiversity net gain, nutrient management schemes, private equestrian or grazing use and potential reinstatement of fisheries, but will require active land management and any necessary consents to realise commercial projects.
Practical points: vacant possession will be given at completion, mains water is available and metered, there are no public footpaths across the land and the site is not in a flood risk area. Buyers should make their own enquiries with Winchester City Council on permitted uses and check the third-party access arrangements before offer.
