For sale in a prime Surrey village so I guess it won't be a jump spot for much longer 🙁

Am I right in thinking that aside from the photos, there is literally no mention whatsoever of the jumps... reckon they've missed a trick there

£45k starting bid with an unknown reserve, why not just start at the reserve price. If it was actually available for £45k then I'd be tempted.

I've been meaning go and ride those jumps for ages. Looks like I'd better hurry up, there's only one reason someone will buy that plot.

looks like quite a few planning constraints on that site so doing a Grand Designs might be tricky

£45k for 3 acres in Surrey, there's no way you'd get permission for a house on it. If it was possible then the starting price would be 20x that!

A friend just sold a small field (1 - 1.5 acre), with road access for £100k. No chance of getting planning permission, but the new owner has a dog walking business and hires out fields to other dog walkers/owners.

£10/hour, 10hours a day (plus more in summer), 364 days a year (and it is that busy). They're making a 30% return without lifting a finger!
