Large freehold pastureland with stables and development upside, subject to overage..
8.03 acres with three stone/wooden stables (Lot 1)
Two adjacent parcels of open pasture in SK14 offer a rare combination of equestrian amenity and development upside. Lot 1 includes three stone/wooden stables and approximately 8.03 acres with a water connection already in place; Lot 2 is 8.21 acres of grassland with no services. Both lots are freehold and accessed from Uplands Road, close to existing residences and local leisure amenities, making them well suited to lifestyle buyers, small-scale equestrian uses or longer-term investment holds.
The land is marketed with clear constraints: an overage provision grants the vendor 25% of any uplift in value if the use changes from agricultural or equestrian within 25 years. The soil is described as slowly permeable and seasonally waterlogged (Brickfield 3), which may limit certain forms of development or require mitigation for drainage works. Fencing and boundary responsibilities sit with the purchaser.
Practical positives include excellent mobile signal, fast broadband speeds, no identified flood risk and straightforward roadside access. Services are limited—only Lot 1 has a water connection—so buyers should factor in service installation costs if planning alternative uses. Prospective purchasers should also note existing public and private rights, and that planning or change of use may trigger the overage payment.
This offering will suit: equestrian or lifestyle buyers who want immediate grazing and stabling; developers or investors prepared to work within the overage and planning constraints; and buyers seeking a substantial freehold countryside holding close to town amenities. Perform targeted due diligence on soil drainage and services before committing.
