Full Details for Property for sale in Alton, GU34 :
A rare opportunity to acquire a paddock of 2.05 acres (0.83 hectare) with a long road frontage backing on to Alice Holt Forest also with a separate small overgrown plot nearby in a rural community within the South Downs National Park.
Description
The main area of land is a single pasture field to the East side of Blacknest Road opposite the driveway to a property called The Oaks. The long road frontage is hedged and has a recessed metal farm gate. The field borders onto a drain and the woodland of Alice Holt to the North Westerly and Northerly side with the South Eastern boundary beside a public bridleway and land denoted as Blacknest Recreational Area. The field is bordered by a mixture of fencing, hedging and trees. The principal land use in the neighbourhood is pasture and woodland interspersed with the residential properties and businesses contained within Blacknest, a rural community within 1.25 miles of Bentley Station (Alton - Farnham - Waterloo rail line) and the River Wey.
Description 2
The additional and separate small plot lies further along Blacknest Road proceeding South and lies on the Western side of the road with a small frontage of about 40 feet, being to the North side of paddocks belonging to a property set back from the road called Peppercorn Cottage. This plot is the former site of a chapel, which we gather was of tin construction on a brick base. Now totally overgrown with brambles and small trees, it sides onto a field to its Northerly side.
Location
Blacknest is a country community within the National Park with properties spread out and scattered of varying types, sizes and ages. Blacknest provides a golf club and the Jolly Farmer Inn. The neighbouring bridleway leads into Alice Holt Forest. Bentley village has a thriving primary school, shop, church and traditional village activities with neighbouring Alice Holt including a Forestry Commission Visitor Centre and a programme of events. Lying just within the Hampshire border with Surrey, the major commuter town of Farnham with its splendid Caste Street is within 5 miles. Within 7.2 miles, the old market town of Alton has diverse shops, supermarkets, senior and Convent schools, and Alton College. The A325 connects with the A3 leading to the South Coast.
