Land for sale

*BEST AND FINAL OFFERS ARE INVITED BY 1PM ON 02/03/2026 - The seller reserves the right to consider suitable proceedable offers prior to the deadline* Rarely available attractive land located in an affluent and picturesque Surrey village. Situated approximately only 6 miles from the M25, offering good access into London.
The site is located in a high-value area of surrey (for example, properties on the same street have sold for over 1.3 million – £1,375,000 on 13/03/2024 and £1,350,000 on 05/10/2010, based on land registry data)

PLANNING HISTORY AND DEVELOPMENT POTENTIAL
In 2020 (Ref: APP/M3645/W/19/3233753), the Planning Inspectorate confirmed that proposals for two barn type structures on the site (see image of drawings) would not constitute inappropriate development within the Green Belt, stating, “I have no reason to conclude that the proposal would be inappropriate development within the Green Belt.”
The appeal was dismissed due to the absence of the required ecology survey, which was needed because a new access was initially proposed. Lacking specialist knowledge that such a report would be necessary, the applicant later chose to rely on an existing right of way to avoid unnecessary costs. However, this amendment was submitted too late to be formally considered, though none of these matters affected the suitability of the land or the principle of development.
A later appeal considered a revised application. The Inspector in that case interpreted the proposed buildings as being for equestrian rather than agricultural use. With appropriate professional guidance and clearer supporting information, this matter could have been resolved. Following this, the applicant’s personal circumstances changed, and there was no longer a need to pursue development on the site. The land has remained unused since, presenting a rare opportunity for a new owner to unlock its full potential.
This history clearly demonstrates that appropriately designed agricultural buildings could be supported in the future, particularly with expert planning advice and proactive liaison with the planning authority. The site has previously been used for storage and benefits from a Certificate of Lawful Use (Ref: TA/2016/1239) for grazing and the placement of hedging. The road-facing boundaries already have hedging in place, and further planting could create a more private, well-defined plot. For those wishing to explore residential opportunities, this established lawful use provides a strong foundation under Paragraph 84(e) of the National Planning Policy Framework, offering scope for a thoughtfully designed home in the countryside. Other planning opportunities may also exist, highlighting the site’s versatility and long-term potential.
The planning information provided is for general information and background context only. Interested parties should verify specific details with the local planning authority as required.
