Description
APPROXIMATELY TWO ACRES OF LAND IN THE POPULAR VILLAGE OF SCOTTER, WITH VEHICULAR ACCESS FROM GAINSBOROUGH ROAD AND AN EXISTING STABLE BLOCK COMPRISING TWO STABLES AND A TACK ROOM. AN INTERESTING OPPORTUNITY FOR BUYERS SEEKING LAND WITH EXISTING STABLING OR WISHING TO EXPLORE FUTURE DEVELOPMENT POSSIBILITIES. DRAWINGS SHOWING A POTENTIAL 17-HOME SCHEME ARE AVAILABLE, BUT PLANNING PERMISSION HAS NOT BEEN GRANTED. ANY DEVELOPMENT WOULD BE SUBJECT TO THE NECESSARY PERMISSIONS AND CONSENTS. SOLD UNDER HUNTERS SECURED; A RESERVATION AGREEMENT AND BUYER RESERVATION FEE APPLY.
Approximately two acres of land, existing stabling and a popular village setting combine to make this an opportunity worth exploring. Situated off Gainsborough Road in Scotter, the site benefits from vehicular access and offers an appealing setting close to the village’s shops, services and places to eat.
The land includes a stable block set on a concrete base, comprising a tack room and two stables measuring approximately 3.6m x 3.6m and 3.6m x 3m. These existing facilities will be of particular interest to purchasers looking for land with stabling already in place. Mains service availability is advised, although purchasers should confirm the service type, connection arrangements and suitability for their intended use.
For those interested in exploring residential development, drawings have been prepared illustrating a potential layout of 17 homes. These drawings do not have planning approval, and planning permission has not been granted for the scheme. They provide a proposal for purchasers to investigate rather than confirmation that the site can be developed. Any future development, including the number and type of properties, would be subject to obtaining the necessary planning permission and other consents.
The combination of the site’s size, village location, access and existing stable block makes it an interesting proposition for a range of purchasers. Contact Hunters to arrange a viewing, discuss the land or request a copy of the available drawings.
HUNTERS SECURED
This property is being sold under the Hunters Secured scheme. The sale is subject to a reservation agreement, and a buyer reservation fee applies. Please contact Hunters for the fee amount, full terms and any applicable refund conditions before entering into the agreement.

Flood Risk
Environment Agency open data, checked around the advertised map pin for the listed acreage. Long-term risk counts flood defences; the planning map's flood zones do not. The map pin for this listing marks the postcode area rather than the exact location, so these readings describe the surrounding area. Provided by LandSale, not the listing agent, and not part of the agent's particulars. Risk varies across a holding, so verify before committing.
