If you own your yard can i ask a rather rude question?
How much (ball part) did you pay for it? What did you get for that price? E.g. how many stables, how much land, is there a house on the land, is there a menage etc.
Also whereabouts roughly in the country are you (only to gauge against property prices in that area).

A property with a yard has recently come up for sale near us and I'm really interested in gauging what its worth.
I appreciate its a rather rude question but am really interested if only in ball part numbers.
Thank you

Prices around the country vary hugely around the country. You're better off comparing the asking price with similar properties in the area.

What could cost you around £1.5m in my part of the world may cost twice that further south - or significantly less further north east.
 
We moved in here 6 years ago, we have a thatched 4 bedroomed house, 8 acres, 8 stables, we have put in a sand school (home made) nice area in East Sussex, we brought it for £425.000 I'm not sure how much it is worth now though maybe £525.000 - £625.000.

I'm not sure that will really help you

I agree the problem is theres nothing for sale anywhere near us thats the same. Thats why this caught my eye - a friend is looking and has the cash to buy but no idea what a good rate might be.
This is a 40 acre, large menage, 20 stables, tack room, hay barn, 2 hay fields, all paddocks post and railed and water / electricity on site.
No house nor planning permission for one at present but room to build one.

very like mine apart from we have a small 3 bedroom cottage and are very near london and ours is estimated at 1.5million with a nice house it could get probably up to 3 mil !!

we were very lucky and bought it 11 years ago for 350k but had no barn stables fencing or anything so we done all that ourselves "!
 
Where in the country are you? It hugely depends - land is like gold-dust in the home counties, so I would expect to pay at least £10,000 an acre for horse land, in fact probably more as it already has stables, and then the gamble of possibly a house would perhaps double its worth round here.

But if you were up north, I would expect it would be considerably less. Does that help?

I would seriously doubt they would get pp for a house - that would def bump the value up, no matter where the yard is based.
 
depends on a lot of things? the bigger the acreage the cheaper the price. location? drainage? stables or agricultural buildings? fencing? planning permission? ties on property?, clawbacks for development? if house and or menage? area in country? the world is your oyster! around 10 grand per acre for pony paddocks is the norm
