Farm LandDescription
This 10.25-acre site comprises gently rolling grassland with a pond, a small area of scrub and woodland, and a timber-framed agricultural building at the rear. The land is mainly laid to grass and is enclosed by a mix of post-and-rail fencing and mature hedgerows, with a railway embankment along the northern boundary.
The approximately 14.4m by 7.2m building has two open-fronted bays, a workshop and storage area, plus an enclosed bay with mezzanine storage. Several smaller timber sheds are also present. The main building is described as offering scope for improvement and adaptation for agricultural or equestrian use.
The site is on the outskirts of Mouldsworth, close to Delamere Forest and its network of paths and bridleways. The sale is subject to a 30-year development clawback: the sellers or their successors are entitled to 30% of any increase in value resulting from planning permission for uses other than agricultural or equestrian. Any alternative use would require planning feasibility to be verified.

Confidence: LOW
At £175,000, this is a distinctive 10.25-acre land and agricultural-building opportunity near Delamere Forest, with open grassland, a pond, mature boundaries and a four-bay timber building that could be improved for agricultural or equestrian use. The building’s condition is difficult to judge from the distant photographs, and the listing does not evidence residential accommodation, so this is best viewed as a land-and-building project rather than a house renovation.
Floor area is missing, so value versus local £/sqf cannot yet be judged. The 30-year development clawback, entitling the sellers or their successors to 30% of any increase in value from planning permission for non-agricultural or non-equestrian uses, is an important constraint to understand; any required works and consents should also be verified.
Key opportunities
- Improve and adapt the four-bay timber building, workshop and storage areas for agricultural or equestrian requirements.
- Make use of the 10.25 acres of grassland, pond, mature boundaries and proximity to Delamere Forest and its bridleway network.
- The open, gently undulating site and existing fencing provide a useful starting point for a rural land-use project.
Key risks
- The 30-year development clawback gives the sellers or their successors 30% of any increase in value arising from planning permission for uses other than agricultural or equestrian.
- Distant external photographs do not establish the agricultural building’s structural, roof or interior condition; inspect it and verify any required works and consents.
- No usable floor area is provided, so value versus local £/sqf cannot yet be judged.
