A UNIQUE OPPORTUNITY TO ACQUIRE A BARN FOR CONVERSION WITH FULL PLANNING PERMISSION AND INITIAL WORKS COMMENCED (INCLUDING FOUNDATIONS, STEEL FRAMEWORK AND CONNECTION OF SERVICES). ALTERNATIVELY THE OPTION TO PURCHASE THE BARN COMPLETED TO THE SAME STANDARD AND SPECIFICATION AS THE NEIGHBOURING CONVERSION (AS SHOWN)

THE PROPERTY
The sale provides a unique opportunity to acquire a large attached granary barn with full planning permission (Ref: DC/22/1073/FUL) for a stunning conversion providing airy, light and expansive family accommodation of around 2,400 sq ft (gross internal area) with far reaching views.

Built in the traditional vernacular of flint and brick with impressive uniformly cut clunch blockwork, the conversion works to the barn have commenced with the connection of mains services (electricity, water and sewerage), with foundations and internal steel framework installed.

The Vendors have now completed the adjoining conversion (which can be viewed) and will consider an alternative option to project manage and complete the conversion of this barn to the same standard and finish (with a degree of flexibility in terms of layout and finish) as shown.

Outside, the barn will benefit from a courtyard to the front (with cartlodge garage) and garden area to the rear with far-reaching views.
