A strategic parcel of investment land extending to 20 acres on the outskirts of the M25. The site benefits from extensive road frontage and is surrounded by dense residential housing and may accordingly be considered to benefit from some considerable ‘hope-value’ for future development.
At present the land is suitable for grazing livestock or horses, with paddock potential. It is flat, well drained, with good access and surrounded by a mixture of established hedgerow and mature trees.
The land is located in the well sought after village of Ockham in the wealthy county of Surrey, which borders Greater London resulting in many commuter towns and villages in the area. The population density is high and has the highest cost of living in the UK outside of London. This has led to a considerable lack of affordable housing in the area and more significantly an annual shortfall of 804 homes per annum in the Borough. Consequently, house prices have risen by 25% in the last year alone.
The site is available freehold as a whole or in lots.
Properties on Green Lane sell for in excess of £558,333 with the average house price on Ockham Road North fetching £698,125.
Furthermore, the average house price in the area is 151% above the England and Wales average. These house prices increased by 25% in the last year alone.
According to the latest RICS rural land market survey, land prices in the South East increased by 25% in the past year, with many surveyors predicting further price rises in 2008.
The area has a strong equestrian influence and is popular with horse-riders with several bridleways, stables and riding schools in Ockham and the surrounding towns and villages.
Ockham lies to the east of the A3 trunk road, which links London to Portsmouth and runs through Guildford and Junction 10 of the M25, which is just 2.4 miles away. The village is an extension of East Horsley to the South.
East Horsley is a suburbanised village between Leatherhead and Guildford exploiting the proximity of Horsley Railway Station. As a result the village has expanded into a general residential area mostly in a linear pattern along the Ockham Road.
Guildford is just over 6 miles from the site and is the county town of Surrey. This bustling and thriving commercial town was voted one of the top 10 places to live by the Channel 4 programme, “The Best and Worst Places to Live in the UK”.
Surrey is credited with having the highest proportion of millionaires of anywhere in the UK.
Two of the UK’s busiest and largest airports can be found within 15 miles of the site; London Heathrow and London Gatwick. Heathrow handles more international passenger traffic than any other airport in the world, leading to the expansion of the recently opened Terminal 5.
The site benefits from 349 metres of road frontage onto Green Lane where there is a gated access point into the land.
The land is designated within the Greenbelt and any development would be subject to planning permission.
