Sell a paddock or equestrian land in Coalville
We buy paddock land across Leicestershire. In Coalville, as everywhere, the offer depends on the land itself: its access, its planning prospects and what can sensibly be built.
Paddock land is a small enclosed field used for grazing or keeping horses, often close to houses. Paddocks next to villages and towns can have development potential, which is why they often sell for more than ordinary grazing land.
- Free appraisal and written offer
- No commission: we're the buyer
- Figures explained, so you can check them

Coalville at a glance
Coalville (LE67) sits in OS grid square SK41, roughly 12 miles north-west of Leicester. Sites between here and Loughborough or Earl Shilton are just as much of interest to us.
Largely lowland farmland and growing towns. Unlike many Midlands counties, Leicestershire has no designated green belt.

Land we're keen to see around Coalville
- Paddocks adjoining village or town housing
- Land behind houses with a shared or private access
- Pony paddocks no longer needed by the family
- Equestrian yards with buildings that could be redeveloped
We buy paddocks as they are, including field shelters, stables and fencing, and explain clearly whether our offer reflects grazing value, hope value or both.
What affects the price
Position
A paddock next to houses has far more potential than one in open countryside.
Existing buildings
Stables and hardstanding may count as previously developed land in some cases.
Change of use history
Equestrian use may already have needed planning permission; we check the record.
Neighbours' views
Overlooking and outlook affect what layout a council will accept.
Ways to sell this land
Outright purchase
A clean sale reflecting grazing and any hope value.
Subject-to-planning sale
We complete once homes are approved on the paddock.
Option agreements
Useful where the paddock could form part of a wider site.
Joint ventures
Suits owners of larger equestrian yards with redevelopment potential.

Planning and legal points for land in Leicestershire
Planning framework
Planning decisions in England follow the National Planning Policy Framework, revised in August 2026, and the local plan, prepared by the council or, in a national park, the park authority. Plans are reviewed periodically, which is when new housing sites are usually allocated.
Farm tenancies
Agricultural Holdings Act tenancies and farm business tenancies have their own notice and compensation rules, which affect when land can be developed.
Land registration
Land in England is registered with HM Land Registry. Unregistered land needs first registration when it's sold, which your solicitor arranges.
Awkward details we deal with
You still keep horses on part of it
We can look at buying part of the land and leaving you the rest, with access protected.
A neighbour has used the field informally
Long informal use can raise questions about rights. Your solicitor will check this early.
Useful to send us
- The address or postcode
- A rough size, in acres or hectares
- Photos of the land and its access
- How soon you'd ideally like to sell
What people ask us about paddock land
Will you buy the stables too?
Yes. We buy the whole site as it stands, including buildings and fencing, unless you'd like to keep something.
Can I keep a strip for my own access?
Yes. Your solicitor can reserve rights or keep land back as part of the sale.
What if the paddock is landlocked?
Landlocked paddocks are worth less, but can still be valuable to an adjoining owner or as part of a wider scheme.
Do you buy land in Coalville?
Yes. We consider land in and around Coalville and across Leicestershire. Whether we can make an offer depends on the land itself, especially its access and planning prospects, and we'll tell you either way.
