Land Prices

Land prices are predicted to increase by up to 10% in the first half of this year alone. Farmers looking to expand are expected to compete fiercely with investors for land as it becomes more well-known as an asset class with a proven track record of capital growth. Unlike many other investments, land can also offer lifestyle opportunities that can be enjoyed.

While economic turmoil prevails in financial markets, land is still regarded a safe haven for investment particularly in the context of other asset classes. The capital value growth of UK farmland is forecast to outperform many commodities markets.

The value of farmland is over treble the price being achieved 10 years ago and almost doubles that of 5 years ago. Property agents and surveyors agree that the medium term prospects for farmland values (in terms of capital growth) are extremely positive and an excellent hedge against inflation.

Equestrian

The land has easy access to excellent out-riding to the North Downs.

The village of Lingfield is nearby and it is most famous for its horse racing course. It is best known as an all-weather flat-racing course; just one of five in the UK and one of the busiest in Europe. Set in 450 acres of beautiful countryside, Lingfield Park is more than just a racecourse. With a premier 18-hole golf course, a sports and leisure club and outline planning permission to build an integrated four star hotel, it is one of the most exciting racecourses in the UK.

RICS Rural Land Market Survey

The latest RICS Rural Land Market Survey reports that farmland prices increased by 11% in the last 6 months alone resulting in an annual increase in land prices of 19%. Looking ahead, surveyors expect the current trend in rising land prices to continue.

Oxted is a commuter town in Surrey at the foot of the North Downs, north of East Grinstead and south-east of Croydon. In 2011 The Daily Telegraph listed Oxted as one of the richest towns in Britian.

East Grinstead to the south is a large town undergoing significant redevelopment, to the point where landowners and developers are being encouraged to put forward plans to achieve the vision set out in the local Planning Document. With no public money being spent, this Planning Document is a guide for private developers and landowners to pursue ideas.

The nearby town of Sevenoaks in Kent is one of the most affluent and expensive areas to reside in the country, and in 2011 the town was named as having the fifth highest number of “million pound property streets” in the UK. Sevenoaks is characterised by high levels of economic activity and a skilled resident workforce.

Croydon to the north has developed as an important centre for shopping and there are plans for a new large shopping centre, which will replace most of the eastern edge of the shopping district.
The town is expected to have its urban planning changed as part of Croydon Vision 2020; a major regeneration programme to promote Croydon as hub of living, retailing, culture and business in South London and South East England.

Croydon is one of the major metropolitan centres identified in the London Plan; a spatial development strategy to make London a more prosperous city with strong and diverse economic growth and accommodate London’s growth.

Surrey borders Kent, Sussex, Hampshire, Berkshire and Greater London. Due to it’s proximity to London the population density is high and Surrey has both the highest GDP per capita of any county in the UK and the highest proportion of millionaires in the country.

The excellent local infrastructure provides easy travel into London, the Heart of Surrey and into Southern England. The M25 and the M23 motorways are easily accessible and London can be reached by train within 34 minutes from the local Train Station.

The M23 leads to Gatwick Airport, London’s second largest airport and the second busiest in the UK.
