The Barn
Located to the rear of the garden of Merrymead, the barn offers significant redevelopment potential offering 800sq ft of accommodation in the current form of a barn. Constructed of stone elevations under a tiled roof, the barn would readily convert to provide a two or three bedroom dwelling, subject to Planning Permission. The barn benefits from a separate access from the main dwelling via a right of way with direct access onto Charlton Road. Externally, gardens wrap around the property and includes a productive vegetable plot.
The Paddock
The paddock comprises of a single block of pasture land extending to some 1.5 acres. Collett Park borders the south and east of the land with stone walls and an allotment borders the western border. The land is accessed via a right of way from Charlton Road and offers potential for development.(It should be noted that both the barn and the Paddock sit within development boundaries of the town, however, any potential purchaser would need to satisfy themselves by undertaking their own enquiries into planning permission.)

Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:
Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
