Property

Located just off the A3072 between Bickleigh and Crediton this 1.6 acre freehold site includes 4 modern well maintained detached buildings with a combined footprint of over 1000m2 (11,000 ft2), a yard with parking for 20 vehicles, paddock and great access which would suit a whole range of business uses.

Most recently the property has been used as kennels and cattery (3 buildings) with supporting offices and veterinary surgery (1 building). It lends itself well to continued use as kennels, cattery and veterinary surgery, pet hotel or similar which would benefit from the infrastructure already in place.
The space on offer would also suit a whole variety of businesses uses (Class E Commercial Business and Service, F1 Learning non-residential institutions , F2 Community and B8 Storage ) and could potentially provide an opportunity for residential conversion subject to planning.

In addition to this commercial property, there are two cottages (each with an adjacent barn) for sale separately which may be of interest to those wishing to live on site.

The site is served by mains water and three phase electricity and utilises an on-site sewage treatment plant that also serves the two cottages. There are oil fired boilers and modern, bunded oil storage tanks providing heating to the four buildings as well as a large gas storage tank that supplies the laundry located in the main kennel block.

The property is being sold freehold with vacant possession on completion. The local towns of Crediton and Tiverton are 7 miles and 5 miles away respectively and the city of Exeter is 12miles to the south.
