Situated in a lovely peaceful location in this very attractive and popular village, an area of amenity land of 0.12 acres with a small corrugated old Scout Hut on the site. NB. Please note this is not a plot to build a house.

Situation:
This land is in the highly sought-after area called Westridge, in the village of Highclere, just inside the Hampshire border and south of Newbury. The land is situated in a secluded location yet has excellent road links via the A34 and M4 motorway. Newbury is the nearest town and is only 5 miles away. Highclere, along with Woolton Hill, is a very popular area some 5 miles to the south of Newbury. They form a scattered community that is surrounded by attractive countryside, which includes the Highclere Castle Estate and The Chase, a delightful area of woodland much used for local recreation and owned by The National Trust. Communications from here are very good both by road and rail, particularly since the opening of the Newbury western by-pass, which can be accessed approximately 1.5 miles away.

Description:
The Scout Hut is an opportunity for someone to buy a small area of amenity land, on which is a basic corrugated building measuring approximately 16ft x 10ft, with off road access and surrounded by mature trees. The whole plot measures 0.12 acres and has a garden of a neighbouring house on one side, and an open field on the other side.

Tenure:
Freehold

Services:
A purchaser would need to make their own investigations about services to the site.

Local Authority:
Basingstoke & Deane Borough Council

The next steps...

Before making an offer on a property you will want to consider your financial situation, your income and outgoings.

Will you finance the purchase of your next property from the sale of an existing property which can put you in a chain, arrange a mortgage through your bank or buy the property outright.

To help you finance your next property purchase, we have a long established relationship with an independent mortgage broker who can discuss your situation with you.

Remember that having a 'mortgage decision in principle' can make you a more attractive buyer when you make an offer on a property. Contact our mortgage advisers for free, no obligation and impartial advice.

Some advantages of a broker are:

  • They do all the legwork for you, working on your behalf with the lender
  • They compare wholesale mortgage rates from a large number of banks and lenders all at once
  • Their wholesale interest rates can be lower than retail (bank branch) interest rates
  • They offer more loan options because they work with numerous banks and lenders
  • They can finance tricky deals because of their knowledge and various lending partners
  • They are typically easier to get in contact with, and are less bureaucratic.

However advantages of working with your bank are:

  • You may be able to build off an existing relationship (and gain discounts if you have a checking or savings account)
  • You may already know the banker who will handle your mortgage
  • Banks may be more accountable than a smaller shop
  • They may offer lower interest rates in some cases
  • Their ability to add mortgage to existing banking profile and make automatic payments from linked account.

If other offers have been made on a property we aren't legally able to tell you what they are, but we may indicate if they were close to the asking price.

If you have a property to sell, why not see how we can help you.
