Description

FULLY FENCED PADDOCK WITH ITS OWN PRIVATE GATED ENTRANCE
We are delighted to present “Kings Paddock”, an excellent opportunity for you to own 1.8 acres of flat grazing land. Ideal for equestrian or grazing purposes, the land is fully enclosed by attractive stock-proof post & rail fencing, providing a clearly defined and secure paddock ready for use.

The paddock benefits from its own private gated entrance and is within a secluded location with good access from a double-gated entrance on East Road to the north. It is pleasantly situated on the eastern edge of the increasingly popular village of Langford, close to local shops and amenities, with Biggleswade just 1.9 miles away.

The land is currently suitable for grazing or a variety of recreational and amenity uses, subject to any necessary consents.

For equestrian purchasers, the location is particularly appealing, with a bridleway close to the entrance to the site providing access to an extensive network of bridlepaths and opportunities for outriding.
