About 80 acres (32 ha) in total

For sale as a whole

SituationThe Land at Mill Lane is located on the western edge of the village of Twyford in rural Buckinghamshire approximately 8 miles north east of the larger town of Bicester. The land lies within a ring fence to the north of the Bicester Road which leads directly into Twyford.

The propertyThe property totals 80 acres of mainly arable, pasture and woodland sitting in a ring fence block in an attractive location. There is currently a 6 furlong gallop within the property curving around the lower half of the southern fields with a small incline. The land is split into three main fields with small areas of woodland located to the northern boundary and central to the site. The current owner of the property has successfully gained planning permission for a small equine development comprising a 20 box stable barn with a central feed passage and three bedroom eco cabin with an equine occupancy condition.

This is a wonderful opportunity to purchase an attractive block of land with the site prepared to build out a new yard suitable for a wide variety of equestrian uses. Once a business is established planning approval should be sought for a permanent dwelling.

The property is accessed along the main drive, located on the western boundary, where there is a right of access or alternatively from Mill Lane to the north east taken directly from the village of Twyford.

Equine development opportunityPlanning application 17/03422/APP was approved on the 21st August 2017 and the planning permission has been implemented through the construction of the foundations to mark out the footprint of the development. It is understood that the main building would be of concrete pillar construction clad with Yorkshire boarding with 20 internal boxes. Located within the building to the northern elevation would be a yard office and tack room with wash bay and feed storage to the southern elevation. The site is accessed from the council maintained road running adjacent to the northern boundary of the property.

The three bedroom eco cabin is to be located to the western elevation of the yard and would be subject to an equine occupancy condition.

There are currently no services to the site but the planning application does include roof mounted solar panels to the roof of the equine building.

Please refer to the architects’ plan below for further details of the proposed development. Further details are also available from the Aylesbury Vale District Council website and the vendors agents.

The LandThe land is split into three main fields and comprises about 40 acres of arable, about 32 acres of pastureland and about 4 acres of mature woodland. The land is relatively level with a gentle gradient for the all weather gallop. The arable land is currently down to winter wheat and included within a contract farming agreement. The boundaries of the land are currently hedged and part fenced with new post and rail fencing adjacent to the western boundary.
