Land for sale

Off Sporton Lane, South Normanton DE55

Detailed Description

An exceptional parcel of well-established pasture extending to approximately 5.643 acres (2.284 hectares), idyllically situated off Sporton Lane on the edge of South Normanton, just a short distance from the junction with Carr Lane. Occupying a private, tranquil position that seamlessly combines rural privacy with suburban convenience, this highly versatile block of grazing land presents a rare opportunity for equestrian users, smallholders, and amenity buyers.

The land features a distinct 'p-shaped' layout-providing a controlled, sheltered entrance neck that opens out into a broad, expansive main pasture. Held by the same family for three generations, it has been well-maintained as reliable seasonal pasture for over 75 years, including over two decades of annual summer horse grazing (April to October). While enjoying a peaceful rural setting, the site benefits from superior regional connectivity, positioned just minutes from South Normanton town centre and within 1.5 miles of Junction 28 of the M1 motorway and the A38 dual carriageway.
