One of the distinguishing features of this land is the presence of over 100 willow trees, adding both charm and ecological richness to the landscape.

With a 10 to 15 year time to maturity the trees here are at various stages of their growth cycle with some not far off maturity. Current market value for a mature willow is around £500 and rising. (The trees have been planted, tended and harvested by JS Wright's the worlds oldest and largest cricket bat willow supplier based in Great Leighs.)
The property offers two entrances ensuring both security and a grand entrance.
With low maintenance costs, this piece of land is not only an investment in real estate but also a sustainable and eco-friendly choice.
