Summary - REDFANTS MANOR BARDFIELD ROAD SHALFORD BRAINTREE CM7 5HU
1 bed 1 bath Land
Secluded rural holding with stables and river frontage, ideal for equestrian or conversion plans.
Just under 22 acres (8.90 ha) of well-maintained pasture and paddocks
Set within just under 22 acres (STS) of well-managed pasture, this secluded plot in Hulls Lane offers strong equestrian and development potential. The site includes a large detached stable block, menage and extensive river frontage along the River Pant, with fishing rights noted on an adjoining plot. A pre-application report is available that considers conversion of the existing stable block into a residential dwelling — a starting point for anyone exploring residential reuse or enhancement.
The approach is via a long private driveway to a traditional countryside setting a short drive from Shalford village and five miles from Braintree town centre. Local primary schools have good Ofsted ratings, crime levels are low and mobile signal is excellent, making the land practical for rural living, riding and leisure uses. Major road links (A120, A131, A12) are accessible for commuting and services.
Practical considerations are straightforward but important: the sale is offered with vacant possession on a freehold basis and prospective purchasers must verify services and connections themselves. Broadband speeds are reported as very slow; buyers should budget for connectivity improvements if needed. The pre-application report does not constitute planning consent — any residential conversion would require the usual local authority approvals.
This offering suits equestrian owners, developers seeking a conversion opportunity (subject to permission), or buyers seeking a large, private rural holding with immediate use for grazing and leisure. The combination of scale, river frontage and existing equestrian infrastructure delivers rare scope for lifestyle use or sensitive redevelopment.
