Sell a paddock or equestrian land in Tonypandy

Our interest in paddock land around Tonypandy is simple: we're buying land to build homes on, so we look for sites where homes are realistic and price them on that basis.

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.

  • Grazing land with a gate onto a public road
  • Paddocks with stables, field shelters or hardstanding

  • Pony paddocks no longer needed by the family

Paddocks often sit right on the edge of villages, which can make them some of the most interesting small sites for new homes.

How we arrive at a figure for land in Mid Glamorgan

Position

A paddock next to houses has far more potential than one in open countryside.

Access width

Access needs to be wide enough for a road if homes are to be built.

Neighbours' views

Overlooking and outlook affect what layout a council will accept.

Amenity value

Without a planning prospect, neighbours may pay a premium for a paddock adjoining their garden.

How a sale works

  1. Tell us about your land

    Send the postcode or address and a rough size.

  2. We do the homework

    We read the title and planning record and check flood risk and access.

  3. We put an offer in writing

    It shows how we got there. There's no obligation to accept.

  4. Solicitors complete the sale

    Exchange and complete, or exchange now and complete when planning is granted.

What Wales's rules mean for your land

Planning framework

Planning in Wales follows Planning Policy Wales, the national plan Future Wales and the Local Development Plan, prepared by the council or, in a national park, the park authority. When plans are reviewed, landowners can put land forward as a candidate site.

Farm tenancies

Agricultural Holdings Act tenancies and farm business tenancies apply in Wales as in England, with their own notice and compensation rules.

Land registration

HM Land Registry covers Wales as well as England. Unregistered land needs first registration when it's sold.

When the land isn't straightforward

The only access is a narrow track

We measure what's there and see if it can be widened or combined with neighbouring land.

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 plan, or a screenshot from an online map
  • Your title number, if you know it
  • Photos of the land and its access

Questions from landowners near Tonypandy

Do I need planning permission to sell a paddock?

No. You can sell it as it is. Permission only matters to the value and the type of deal.

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.

How long does a paddock sale take?

If the title is registered and there are no disputes, the legal work is usually the main timescale.
