Summary - Forge Field, Gaddesden Row, Hertfordshire HP2 6HJ
1 bed 1 bath Land
Spacious, secluded 0.76-acre plot with strong transport links and development potential subject to permission.
0.76 acres (3,075 sq.m.) of flat pasture with 32m frontage
A rare, residential-sized agricultural plot in an attractive Hertfordshire hamlet, this 0.76-acre (3,075 sq.m.) parcel sits directly adjacent to detached housing on Gaddesden Row. The land is flat pasture with approximately 32m frontage and a gated vehicular access at the south‑west corner, and is well screened by a mature hedgerow for privacy and tranquillity.
The location combines countryside character with strong connections — Hemel Hempstead, Harpenden, Berkhamsted and St Albans are all within easy reach, regular trains into London take around half an hour, and the M1 and Luton Airport are nearby. The site sits within the Chiltern Hills National Landscape and benefits from no flood risk, freehold ownership and vacant possession on completion.
Important constraints to note: the land is Greenfield and subject to an Article 4 Direction, with no current or past planning consents. An overage applies (25% uplift on any change of use other than agricultural/equestrian for 33 years from 2017). Any development or change of use would require appropriate permissions and is likely to face landscape and local-planning scrutiny.
For buyers seeking a countryside investment, land banking opportunity or a potential small development subject to permission, this plot offers scale, seclusion and connectivity. The combination of scarcity of comparable plots locally and recent strong land-value performance gives long‑term appeal, but purchasers should plan for planning risk, potential design constraints and the overage obligation.
