Description
A rare opportunity to acquire an International Equestrian
Centre set within approximately 33 acres on the eastern
edge of Hertfordshire.
Conveniently positioned between the A1(M) and the M11,
the property includes a circa 1.7 acre hardstanding yard
together with substantial existing buildings, extending to
over 27,000 sq ft.
Set within an attractive rural setting, the site comprises
two C3 residential dwellings, a range of barns and stables,
an indoor arena, office accommodation, tack rooms,
outbuildings and a park home. The existing built form
presents a compelling opportunity for a variety of
alternative uses, subject to the necessary change of use
and planning permission.
With growing demand for commercial space and
innovative redevelopment concepts, this site offers
genuine flexibility for developers, investors, and owneroccupiers alike. We believe the land offers potential for
alternative uses, subject to securing the necessary
consents and planning permission. Its convenient
location within easy reach of Ware, Buntingford and
Stevenage presents a range of opportunities. The
immediate area comprises a mix of residential dwellings,
commercial units and recreational facilities, further
supporting the site’s versatility and future potential.
The land does not fall within the Green Belt nor within a
designated Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB),
which may offer greater scope for alternative uses,
subject to securing the appropriate planning permissions
and statutory consents.
