Description

A class Q barn development opportunity with planning permission to create a courtyard of 5 residential dwellings.
This is comprised of 2 x 3 bedroom properties and 3 x 2 bedroom properties. The barn is located in a stunning elevated rural position between the two popular villages of Halwill and Ashwater.

Although the barn has been passed for residential development for 5 attached properties, this could be greatly enhanced with a full planning application to split the properties (subject to the required permissions being in place).

This south facing site presents a wonderful opportunity to add significant value for the right experienced developer.

The site

The site is approached from an unclassified road to a yard which sits to the north of the buildings. To the west is Rowan Park Farm and there is a small gap between the hedge of Rowan Park Farm and the farm building itself, gated and no longer in use.

To the rear of the building (south) and slightly below the height of the building is a field of pasture. The land slopes from north to south quite gently and the height of the building internally tends to follow the lie of the land.

The barn

The building is a large, modern steel framed building with external walls formed from vertical and horizontal timber cladding, beneath a roof covering of corrugated fibre cement sheets (or asbestos sheeting). The northern elevation, facing the highway, provides the main means of access to the building, with the timber cladding only coming partially across the elevation from the roof.

A number of agricultural gates provide enclosure. This is also the case in relation to the southern elevation, however the timber cladding extends much further down the elevation, to meet the agricultural gates. The eastern and western elevations are entirely enclosed by timber boarding.

Internally the building is divided into bays by a number of agricultural gates. The building’s structure is also visible, with numerous steel supporting columns evident. The roof structure can also be viewed, with steel frame and timber purlins.

The building is sited within close proximity to an existing hedgerow on its western edge. To the north of the building, between it and the public highway, is a large area of concrete hardstanding. A mature hedgerow separates the site from the public highway to the north. Vehicular access is provided at the site’s north western corner.

Proposed development

The submitted plans show that the building would be converted to form five dwellings, three of which would have a floor space just below 100m². The two other dwellings would have a floorspace of 174.92m² and 175.27m².

The lean to section of the building at the western end would be demolished, as would a section of the building within the southern part of the building

Planning permission

The Barn has permission for change of use to a dwelling under application number: 1/1118/2022/agmb. An important condition of the permission is that the property must be completed before the expiration of 3 years from 22nd December 2022.

Land plan & drawings
The land plan is based on ordnance survey extracts, and the areas are not guaranteed and purchasers must satisfy themselves as to their accuracy. The architect drawings are for indicative purposes only.

Boundaries

Any purchaser shall be deemed to have full knowledge of all boundaries and neither vendor nor the vendor's agents will be responsible for defining the boundaries or the ownership thereof. Should any dispute arise as the boundaries or any points on the particulars or plans or the interpretation of them, the question shall be referred to the vendors agent whose decision acting as experts shall be final.

Services

It is considered that mains electricity and water is available in the vicinity and private drainage is proposed within the planning consent. Prospective purchasers must verify such availability for themselves.

Directions

From Holsworthy proceed on the A388 Launceston road for approximately 3 miles and upon reaching Clawton turn left. After 1.5 miles, upon reaching the 't'-junction at Sprys Shop, turn right. Continue on this and after about 1/3rd of a mile take the left hand turning signed Halwill. Stay on this road for about 1.25 miles and the entrance to the barn will be found on the right hand side with a Kivells 'For Sale' notice clearly displayed.
