Potential

This property is situated outside the conservation area and, with a plot of approximately 0.73 acres, offers potential for further expansion or the construction of one or more new dwellings. It could also be adapted for alternative residential uses, such as a care home. The plot may also have commercial potential, with the building possibly being fully or partially converted to business use, ranging from a medical clinic to automotive purposes. Please note that all such options would be subject to planning consents and/or the necessary licenses. We strongly recommend that all interested buyers make their own enquiries and carry out full due diligence to assess viability prior to bidding, as we make no guarantees that any of these changes are possible.
