SMALL HOLDING WITH COTTAGES, BUILDINGS AND OTHER DEVELOPMENT OPPORTUNITIES (STP)

Description

Little London Farm is a compact grassland smallholding located within the M25 close to Chigwell and extending to about 73.59 acres with development possibilities.

Located on the urban fringe but within a rural setting it provides exciting opportunities for diversification conversion or development (subject to planning) in an accessible location.

Location

Situated some 2 miles from Junction 5 of the M11 and 2 miles from Chigwell. The smallholding lies within the Greater London area and despite being in the green belt is an accessible location for diversification and redevelopment (subject to planning).
