An expansive 12.49-acre parcel of grassland in Golden Valley, offered freehold with road access off Coach Road and 114m of frontage. The land is split into two fenced fields with hedgerows, water troughs and grass suitable for grazing or mowing, and benefits from far-reaching rural views across adjoining countryside.
Crucially, the site has planning permission (AVA/2022/0284) for a 60ft x 30ft steel portal-framed three-bay agricultural building with sheeting to sides and roof, a roller shutter to the front and approved type 1 limestone hardstanding to the building forecourt. Mains water is connected and the plot is sold with vacant possession, making it readily deliverable for agricultural, storage or operational uses permitted by the existing consent.
Practical considerations are straightforward: the land sits in a semi-rural village setting with good road links to the A610/A38 and local towns (Alfreton, Ripley, Derby). However, there are material drawbacks you should weigh: broadband speeds are very slow, mobile signal is only average, and the site has a medium flood risk. The land is also sold subject to any existing rights of way, wayleaves and easements.
This offering will suit purchasers seeking a sizeable countryside holding with an extant agricultural consent — farmers, equestrian users or land investors looking for immediate permitted development. For buyers requiring residential development or significant infrastructure upgrades, further consents and investment would be needed.
