Description
DESCRIPTION
The Land at Cheddington comprises a productive ring fenced block of Grade 3 arable and temporary pasture land located in north east Buckinghamshire extending to approximately 62.72
acres (25.381 hectares).
The land is arranged into four field parcels enclosed with mature hedges and stock fencing, currently farmed in an arable rotation, with seasonal grazing and stewardship cover. The land has a variety of potential uses, subject to the necessary consents. The land is accessed from the north east corner via Horton Road which runs along the north east boundary. Several 33kv and 11kv overhead lines over sail the land to include the entrance. There are a number of pylons on the land.
The land adjoins the West Coast Main Line to the south west, with an existing 5MW ground mounted PV solar installation to the north east.
PLANNING
The land lies within the jurisdiction of Buckinghamshire Council - Aylesbury Vale area. There are widespread residential and employment development proposals nearby in the major conurbations. The land could provide invaluable Biodiversity Net Gain (BNG) opportunities and other alternative uses given its proximity to Leighton Buzzard and Aylesbury.
Other diversification opportunities may also be available, subject to the necessary planning permission. Buyers are advised to satisfy themselves as to potential alternative uses.
