Land, Fundenhall Road, Hapton, Norwich, Norfolk, NR15

Detailed Description

**For sale by online auction on 17th November 2026. Guide £25,000 - £35,000 plus fees.**

Description
We are pleased to offer this parcel of land comprising of circa 2.7 acres (subject to measured survey), situated in this desirable part of Norfolk.

The land itself consists of a mixture of meadow area and woodland, benefitting from gated access off Fundenhall Road immediately coming into the grass meadow area that boasts an orchard containing a number of fruit trees and mature shrubbery creating plenty of privacy from the road and also including a natural spring (currently dried up due to the recent drought conditions).

Towards the end of the meadow area is a small stream that separates the meadow and woodland believed to be a tributary of the River Tas. We understand the stream may be suitable for a number of species of wildlife, specifically Lutra Lutra Otters which are known to have a presence in the Hapton area.

The woodland largely contains mature trees such as alder, ash, birch, oak and much more, with various openings as well as field views at the rear, all of which help create a secluded and picturesque scene. The current owner had started irrigation work in the form of shallow ditches on the right hand side of the woodland and meadow to help manage water control. We are informed that the woodland also benefits from no covenants and pedestrian access at the rear via public footpath, interested parties must satisfy any queries they may have in respect of rights of access & covenants by looking at the legal pack to confirm the arrangements and seek legal advice.

The land could suit a number of uses such as equestrian, birdwatching and much more subject to the necessary approvals being forthcoming, but will be of interest to a wide range of buyers looking to own a small parcel of land in Norfolk.

The smart new timber Shepherd's Hut on the meadow area is available via separate negotiation. There are various storage structures on the land as well as a caravan, there is also an uninstalled bridge for the stream and 6x4 trailer all included in the sale.

How It Works: Unconditional Timed Auction Online: This is a binding method of sale similar to a traditional public property auction. The only difference is the bidding takes place online. The successful purchaser will be required to pay a 10% deposit (subject to a minimum payment of £5,000) on the fall of the virtual gavel and contracts will be exchanged. Bidding for properties online works in a similar fashion to eBay. You can place bids using your PC, tablet or mobile phone and the minimum amount you can bid is defined by the 'bid increment' level. When you place a bid, the property listing page will show you if your bid was successful and whether or not you are the highest bidder. When you are the highest bidder on a property, if another bidder outbids you the system will notify you by email so that you can place another bid if you wish. The major difference from eBay is that our system eradicates sudden death 'bid sniping' through the use of auction 'extension times'. If you have any questions or require any clarification please contact the auctioneer.
