The land benefits from 38m of road frontage onto Cobley Hill. Full vehicular right of way is provided to the land via a gated entrance to the north, on the corner of Scarfield Hill & Cobley Hill.
As with all of Alvechurch, the land is situated within the West Midlands Green Belt. Any development or change of use would be subject to the appropriate permission.
There are no current or past planning applications on the land.
There is no overage or clawback on this land – rare in today’s land market.

Land values in this region rose by 5% last year.
Pasture land prices in the region are 20% higher than the national average as land values rose again last year, despite numerous challenges in the local market & global economy. This once again shows the inherent resilience of agricultural land as a tangible asset.
With a wide range of potential uses, agricultural land remains an attractive investment for a diverse range of buyers.
This is supported by that fact that, in the past 5 years, land values have risen by 31%, outperforming the FTSE 100, UK property prices and interest from savings in the bank.

There are a number of parcels of land within the local area that have been granted permission for agricultural buildings.
Furthermore, several sites have been granted planning permission to convert these agricultural buildings into dwellings.
Most notable of these is a range of agricultural buildings at Cobley Hill Farm, which have been granted planning permission to demolish and convert into 9 new homes (Planning Ref. 24/00301/FUL). This site is just to the south of the land for sale on the same side of Cobley Hill road and within the Green Belt.
These new homes are much needed within the area after the "Bromsgrove District Local Plan: Draft Development Strategy", published in June 2025, suggests that Alvechurch should contribute towards 500 new homes over two sites.
400 of these new homes are allocated on a site just 0.8 miles from the land for sale on Station Road. However, Alvechurch Parish Council has responded saying that this number is excessive and that the site should only accommodate a maximum of 200 dwellings, thus leaving a potential shortfall of some 200 new homes.
