This is an exceptional opportunity for you to own a well-located parcel of land and agricultural building, perfectly suited for equestrian use or potential residential development.
Close to 6 acres, this lush flat pasture land benefits from a 66m2 timber frame barn by the entrance, towards the northern corner. It has been granted planning permission to remove this and build a new stable block, sand school & parking area.
There is an established treeline and shrubbery border around the majority of the land providing good privacy and attractive boundaries. A circle of trees surrounds a small pond at the centre of the land offering an additional charming feature.
The land is situated within an affluent area surrounded by stunning scenery and large characterful houses. It is just a short drive west of the commuter town of Lingfield and close to good transport links offering connections into London and the south coast.
It should also be noted that two barns, which were part of the original farm as the land for sale, have been granted planning to convert into residential dwellings, giving this land some development potential.
The property benefits from planning permission for the demolition of an existing barn and the erection of a new stable block (consisting of 4 stables, feed store & tack room) and a 20m x 40m sand school, with associated parking area and muck bay (Planning Ref. TA/2022/535). This also includes a change of use of land from agriculture to equestrian.
The land is situated within the Tandridge Green Belt. Any further development or change of use would be subject to the appropriate permission.
There is no overage or clawback on this land – rare in today’s land market.
Amendments to Permitted Development Rights introduced in April 2014 have transformed the landscape for anyone wishing to undertake a barn conversion.
Under “Class Q”, it is possible to develop agricultural buildings, and any land within its curtilage, into homes without needing to apply for planning permission.
Development is permitted if the agricultural building has been in use for at least 10 years. The maximum floorspace that can be developed is 465m², which can be divided into up to five separate dwellings. require any further information.
