Land for sale

Harlington Road, Sharpenhoe, Bedford MK45

16 acres outside green belt

Sharpenhoe, Bedfordshire – Freehold

Let’s be clear - sites like this don’t come up often anymore.

16 acres. Not Green Belt. Planning history in place.

Immediate access to the M1 motorway
Positioned between Luton, Bedford & Stevenage
Strong catchment + labour pool
Clear development angle (STP)

With the proposed Universal Studios UK scheme moving forward - this corridor is about to see serious demand for accommodation and supporting uses.

What this actually is:

A strategic land play with multiple exit routes:

• Hotel / hospitality-led scheme
• Serviced accommodation
• Mixed-use
• Long-term hold + uplift

What this isn’t:

❌ Overpriced “hope value” land
❌ Green Belt headache
❌ One-dimensional site

Reality check

• Supply of sites like this = shrinking fast
• Demand in this corridor = rising
• Infrastructure spend = coming regardless
