WHY BUY THIS LAND?

A desirable opportunity to purchase a parcel of attractive pasture land within the London commuter belt. The land measures 2.37 acres with a further 2.82 acres available for sale.



The site is suitable for a variety of amenity, recreational or other uses (STPP) and is accessed via a secure double-gated entrance that is set back from the road.



The land is situated on the southern edge of Tring, just a 15 minute walk from its bustling High Street which offers an extensive mix of shops, cafes, bars and restaurants. It is also superbly located for road and rail links into London.



House prices in Tring are 80% above the national average reflecting the desirability of the area as a place to live and own property - including land. Indeed, the local council states that land for "small-scale 'hobby farming' and the demand for horse paddocks and ménages is on the increase, particularly on the urban fringe".



ACCESS

The site benefits from excellent access via a secure double-gated entrance to the east that is set back from the road. Full vehicular right of way is provided via an easement. Please contact Vantage Land for further information.



LAND VALUES

The average value of land is rising at the fastest rate since 2014. The price of bare land rose by almost 4% in the first quarter of this year, while annual growth hit 14%.



A continued lack of supply and strong demand from a wide range of purchasers - particularly from lifestyle and conservation-motivated buyers - continue to support prices.



As inflation soars, investors are also key buyers as they seek out tangible assets that act as an insurance against such rises. As ongoing economic uncertainty continues, land values are expected to rise even further.

The land lies in the historic market town of Tring in west Hertfordshire, on the border with Buckinghamshire. Its pretty Victorian High Street offers an extensive mix of independently run shops, cafes, bars and restaurants. With a long history in local speciality foods, you will still find the Charter Market taking place every Friday as well as a fortnightly Saturday Farmers Market.



In 2008 Tring became a 'Transition Town' with a vision for a better, more resilient, vibrant and sustainable local economy and environment. The friendly community is extremely supportive of local trade with residents opting to buy from local independent businesses.
