Description


Old Acre was built in the 1980’s of brick under a tiled roof and stands back from the lane, approached over a hardcore drive leading to a car parking and turning area. It was built with an agricultural occupancy condition and the conditions attached to the planning permission apply today. There is about 1,450 square feet of space on offer and the rooms can be adapted to suit individual needs. Whilst now needing some modernisation Old Acre, because of the size of plot and superb location, ideally lends itself to enlargement, subject to planning permission.
