Land for sale

A useful block of amenity land, with frontage to the A4141 Birmingham Road, to be offered for sale by public auction (subject to prior sale, reserve and conditions) at 6.30pm on Tuesday 16th July 2024 at The View, Hill Farm Marina, Stratford Road, Wootton Wawen, B95 6DE.

This interesting and intriguing block of land is situated right on the edge of the Village of Chadwick End, and has excellent road frontage to the Birmingham Road (A4141).

Widening out to the rear, the land backs onto and is surrounded by a number of large properties on the edge of this popular commuter village.

The land has been 'left to go to nature' with natural regeneration, having led to the recolonisation of the land by various trees and shrubs, including ash, sycamore, with an understory of laurel and hazel.

The land will be ideal for the wildlife enthusiast, budding smallholder (for chickens, geese and pigs?). Someone who has a woodburning stove and wishes to have their own regenerative fuel supply, or indeed to actually clear the site for horse/pony grazing, or other recreational use (STPP), bounded only by the purchaser's imagination and possibly some long-term 'hope' potential.

The land is within easy travelling distance of the Birmingham conurbation (approximately 12 miles), 7 miles south of Solihull and 5 miles north-west of Warwick. The national motorway network is easily accessed via J15 of the M40 and J4 of the M42.

The village of Chadwick End is home to the well-known Orange Tree public house/restaurant, whilst Warwick Parkway station is within easy driving distance with fast trains to Birmingham (Moor Street and Snow Hill) and London (Marylebone). Birmingham International Airport, railway station and future HS2 hub are all within easy driving distance.
