Full vehicular access to the land is provided by an excellent gated, private track from Manor Farm Cottages off Westwood Lane. This private track also serves Little Orchard Farm house.
As with all the southern half of the Borough of Guildford, the land is designated as an Area of Great Landscape Value. The land is also situated within the Metropolitan Green Belt and the Surrey Hills National Landscape. The land is subject to an Article 4 Direction and any development or change of use would be subject to the appropriate permission.
The land is subject to an Overage based on 20% of any uplift in value following the grant of planning permission for development other than for agricultural, equestrian or forestry purposes. The Overage period is 80 years from 2017 and is for the benefit of a previous owner.
The land is offered for sale by private treaty. The freehold is available with vacant possession upon completion.
Land values rose again last year.
Pasture land prices in the region are 14% 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.
