Property description & features

  • Tenure: Freehold
  • Equestrian / agricultural use
  • Superb location
  • Parcel of land measuring 0.73 of an acre

A wonderful opportunity to own a parcel of equestrian / agricultural land superbly located in this desirable village. Together lots one and two measure 1.46 of an acre. Both plots would be split equally to provide a parcel of land of 0.73 of an acre each, approximately.

Lot 1 - Guide Price £75,000.

Lot 2 - Guide Price £75,000.

The land has been used for equestrian and agricultural purposes in recent times.

The average price of land increased last year as the amount of land coming onto the market remains at an all-time low. This record low level of supply continues to underpin the growing demand for land.

Robust demand from private investors and lifestyle buyers has grown and together they have accounted for around 40% of land purchases in the last three years. 

Land has been particularly sought-after post-pandemic as the desire for more green space intensifies. It continues to be seen as a safe, long-term investment, particularly during times of economic uncertainty.

The land is designated as green belt. Any development would be subject to the appropriate planning permission and permission of the church. We understand this to be unlikely at this moment in time. We are advised by our client that there were two houses on the site historically.

Agents notes:

Viewing - you may view the land without appointment at anytime between 9am - 6pm. Please do not access the land. It can be seen from the gate on Church Lane.

All costs incurred to fence and legally separate the paddocks (surveyors, legal fees etc.) would be at the buyers expense.

The land is for sale with an overage clause of 50% for 82 years should you achieve residential planning permission.

The land is currently rented by a local farmer. This tenancy ends on the 31st December 2023.

Our client advises us that there is electricity to the land, but this is not connected. There is water / sewage in Church Lane and Damask Green Road. Interested parties will need to satisfy themselves as to the viability and cost to connect any services prior to making an offer.

Weston is an attractive and very highly regarded village just 4 miles from the centre of Letchworth Garden City, 6 miles from the centre of Hitchin and 5 miles from the centre of Stevenage. Junction 9 on the A1(M) is just 1.6 miles away. Weston is a thriving community and exceptionally served by a village shop/Post Office, two pubs, the primary school, parish church and numerous sports clubs and their facilities.

These particulars are intended to give a fair and reliable description of the land but no responsibility for any inaccuracy or error can be accepted and do not constitute an offer or contract. We have not tested any services referred to in these particulars and the purchasers are advised to satisfy themselves as to the working order and condition. All measurements, including plot sizes, are approximate.

    Broadband availability and predicted speed

    Broadband speed is measured in megabits per second, with the number returned showing how fast the connection is. Each reading is based on the highest predicted speed of any major broadband network for services that deliver the download speeds. The following are the different readings that we may display:

    Basic: Up to 30 Mbit/s
    Super-fast: Between 30 Mbit/s and 300 Mbit/s
    Ultra-fast: Over 300 Mbit/s

    The data is updated three times a year. The checker results are predictions and should not be regarded as guaranteed. For more information, see: https://checker.ofcom.org.uk/en-gb/about-checker#Answer_0_2

    Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength

    Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:

    Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
    Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
    Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
    Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
    Enhanced: Full bars, likely to have good coverage indoors and to receive an enhanced data rate to support multimedia services
