THE PROPERTY
The subject property is an irregularly shaped parcel of amenity land extending to approximately 880 square metres (0.22 acres) situated north of Limpsfield Road, close to the junction with Beech Farm Road, Warlingham, Surrey. The land is characterised by gently undulating pasture, bordered by established hedgerows, with views across the surrounding open countryside and towards the residential fringes of this attractive Surrey village.

The plot presents a pleasant semi-rural character, occupying a transitional position between the suburban edge of Warlingham and the open Green Belt countryside that surrounds and defines this part of the Tandridge District. The site is in its natural, undeveloped state, typical of amenity land in this part of Surrey, and offers the kind of unspoilt quality that is increasingly difficult to find so close to London.

The property is offered for sale with full vacant possession, meaning that the successful purchaser will have immediate and unrestricted use of the land from the date of completion.

The land is sold as seen, without the benefit of any planning consent, and prospective purchasers are strongly advised to make their own enquiries regarding potential uses and any relevant planning or title matters prior to bidding.

LOCATION
The land is situated in Warlingham, a charming and highly regarded village in the borough of Tandridge, Surrey, approximately 16 miles south of Central London. The plot lies north of Limpsfield Road (the B269), close to its junction with Beech Farm Road, placing it in a semi-rural position on the edge of the village with immediate access to open Green Belt countryside.

Warlingham itself is a well-established and popular commuter village, benefiting from a strong sense of community, a range of local facilities, and an enviable blend of rural character and urban accessibility. The village centre is approximately 1.5 miles from the site and offers an excellent range of day-to-day amenities including a Sainsbury's Local supermarket, a pharmacy, a post office, a selection of independent cafes, restaurants and public houses, a medical practice, and a variety of local shops.

For families, the surrounding area is well served by a number of highly regarded primary and secondary schools, making this a particularly desirable part of Surrey for those with children. The broader Tandridge District is famed for its outstanding natural beauty, with miles of public footpaths, bridleways, and open countryside making it a haven for walking, cycling, horse riding, and other outdoor pursuits.

The location benefits from the best of both worlds: the peace and privacy of a Green Belt rural setting combined with superb connectivity to Central London and the wider South East — a combination that remains consistently in demand and continues to underpin strong land values in this part of Surrey.
