DESCRIPTION

An attractive parcel of pasture land extending in total to approximately 8.08 acres, situated in a pleasant semi-rural location on the edge of Rowlands Castle, adjoining open countryside.

The property is offered for sale as a whole or in three individual lots. For ease of identification, the parcels are shown coloured on the plan as follows:
Lot 1 (outlined red / southern parcel): Approx. 3.54 acres
Lot 2 (shaded blue / central parcel): Approx. 3.54 acres
Lot 3 (shaded yellow / northern parcel): Approx. 1.00 acres

The land is laid to permanent pasture and is considered suitable for agricultural use and seasonal grazing. Parts of the land benefit from established and mature trees, enhancing the character of the holding and providing natural shelter.

Land in the surrounding area has been used for equestrian and agricultural purposes, although any such use is subject to obtaining the necessary consents.

SITUATION & ACCESS

The land lies to the east of Rowlands Castle within an accessible and attractive countryside setting. Access is via an existing farm track leading from Witchers Gate Road, with a further route available from Woodbury Lane. The holding is well placed for access to a network of bridleways and countryside routes linking into the wider South Downs area.

The selling agents have not made formal enquiries regarding legal rights of access and purchasers must satisfy themselves in this regard.

LAND & CONDITIONS

The land is entirely down to pasture and is suitable for grazing, particularly in drier months. The land is known to lie wet during winter periods. The property adjoins a network of bridleways, enhancing its appeal for equestrian interests subject to consent.

PLANNING

The land is currently in agricultural use only. No planning permission has been granted for any alternative use. Any change of use, including equestrian use, will require planning consent from the Local Planning Authority.

SERVICES

A communal water supply is intended to serve each lot. Purchasers must satisfy themselves as to the nature of supply, connection arrangements and any ongoing costs.

BOUNDARIES & FENCING

The land is fenced in part, particularly along the railway boundary. Where the land is sold in lots, purchasers will be responsible for the erection of internal boundary fencing at their own cost following completion.

FLOOD RISK

The land lies predominantly within Flood Zones 2 and 3 and may be subject to periodic flooding. Purchasers should make their own enquiries with the Environment Agency.

TENURE & METHOD OF SALE

Freehold with vacant possession. Offered for sale by private treaty as a whole or in up to three lots.

VIEWING

Viewing is permitted during daylight hours either by appointment with the selling agents or from the access track.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION

All areas are approximate only. Plans are for identification purposes only. The selling agents have not made formal enquiries regarding access rights, services, planning or flood risk. Purchasers must rely on their own enquiries. The property is sold subject to any rights, easements or wayleaves whether mentioned or not. Prospective purchasers must satisfy themselves by inspection or otherwise as to the correctness of these particulars.

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 is approximate, 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.
