Terrain, Mont Hall Lane, Dodford, Bromsgrove, Worcestershire

Description
Extending as a whole to approximately 28.39 acres (11.33 hectares) the Land off Monsieurs Hall Lane comprises productive grassland that has been split into useful paddocks and hay fields. The property currently has a single point of access off Monsieurs Hall Lane but has long road frontage also to Timberhonger Lane. The land is bounded by mature hedgerows and trees and is situated in an elevated position with far reaching views.

Accessing the property by a set of double gates you enter a hardstanding yard area where an established DIY livery business is currently being run. There are three main buildings:
1. Steel framed building with mono pitch roof containing 5 loose boxes (about 67.5 sqm)
2. Timber stable block with 2 loose boxes (about 25 sqm)
3. Concrete building with secure tack/ feed room and 4 loose boxes (about 170 sqm)

Mains water and electric is available in this part of the property. Further to the above there are also a number of small garden sheds being used for the storage of hay.

A useful concrete track leads from this first yard area and provides access off to the paddocks before leading up to a 20m x 40m manège with a sand and rubber surface enclosed by a timber post and rail fence.

The adjacent steel portal framed building provides an excellent expanse of storage space currently used for hay and implements. The building extends in total to about 1,050 sqm and we estimate the eaves height to be approximately 6m in the main section. The building currently has an earth floor but offers excellent scope for improvement and alternative uses subject to the relevant planning permissions. There are currently no services to the building.

The land is used for equestrian grazing and hay production. It is classified as Grade 3 and gently rolling but easily accessed and managed from a central track. Water is provided to the paddocks from one mains supply.
