Location
Springway Farm is located on the A372 half a mile east of Weston Zoyland approximately four miles from Bridgwater and the M5 motorway. The premises are well located and readily accessible from Glastonbury to the east, the A303 to the south and the county town of Taunton to the south-west, whilst benefitting from an attractive rural working environment.
Description
The property totals 11.65 acres (4.71 hectares) of which 9.877 acres is a fenced paddock and 1.775 acres predominately commercial buildings, concrete hardstanding suitable for open storage, a disused glasshouse and access of the main road, part of which is shared.
The buildings comprise five semi-detached workshops, two of which have WC’s and all of which could potentially be integrated or sub-divided further to suit requirements. The buildings, including the former farm shop and glasshouse, are in need of repair.
The workshops are of steel framed construction with concrete blockwork walls and metal profiled steel outer cladding. The roofs are similarly clad in metal profiled steel and the floor is concrete. The former farm shop is of brick and concrete block construction with windows to the front elevation and a pitched slate covered roof.
The paddock, which is not currently stock fenced, benefits from a tarmacked entrance road.

Services
Mains three phase electricity is connected. There is no mains water although there is a borehole to the south of the glasshouse. We are advised by the vendor that there is plenty of accessible water should further boreholes need to be dug. There is a septic tank south-east of the workshops.
Planning
The buildings, the glasshouse and yard areas, occupied as Springway Paving, were used for concrete manufacturing and sale before planning was granted on 16th October 2020 for change of use to B1 (business) and B2 (general industrial). The former farm shop does not form part of this consent.
A planning consent dated 11th September 2017, which has been implemented, grants permission for the erection of two field shelters close to the eastern boundary of the paddock.
