Property description

These two large detached Grade II Listed period properties are in need of considerable restoration and offers are invited from cash buyers. The main property is believed to date back to 1802 and has recently benefited from a newly rendered fascade and overhauled roof. Internally the property has been stripped and is thought to offer potential to be subdivided into three units, subject to any necessary consents, or restored back into one house. The separate cottage is also a substantial house that requires renovation. Approached over a private road, a gate gives access to a large area of parking and turning in front of the properties. There is walled garden, large feature pond and an attractive flint outhouse that is thought to offer potential. The grounds extend to approximately 3.1 acres and the whole is surrounded by land that is identified for either residential or commercial development. As such the land may offer scope for new housing, subject to any necessary consents.

The grounds themselves wrap around the front of Preston Hall and extend out to the rear amounting to approximately 3.1 acres in all and surrounded by adjoining land that is earmarked for residential/commercial development. It is therefore thought that there could be some long term potential on some of the ground for residential housing, subject to any necessary consents.
