PROPERTY PRICES

The land is situated within an affluent location. Property prices in the area are 21% above the county average and 61% above the national average. These premium house prices reflect the desirability of the area as a place to live and own property – including land.

LAND VALUES

Pasture land prices in the region are 14% higher than the 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 the 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.

These rises are driven by historically low levels of land availability, as demand continues to outstrip supply.

The land is Greenfield. Any development or change of use would be subject to the appropriate permission.

There are no current or past planning applications on the land.
