Nestled on the edge of a Derbyshire village lies The Barn, a former agricultural building benefitting from a planning approval for a residential change of use.
The Barn
• Occupying a slightly elevated position, the property comprises a former poultry shed sited within a generous plot extending to about 2.84 acres.
• Built circa 1970s, the shed is constructed of concrete blockwork and timber cladding under a pitched corrugated sheet roof with an approximate floor area of about 300 sqm (3,229 sqft).
• The shed is positioned to the south west corner of the site and benefits from roadfrontage to New Lane (B6406) where access is taken.
• The agricultural land extends to about 2.27 acres and is down to grass.
• The Barn offers purchasers an exciting opportunity to create a bespoke home in a semi-rural position. With far-reaching views, the property will especially be of interest to those searching for a live/work space, as well as those with equine interests looking to take advantage not only of the onsite grazing, but the exceptional hacking in the area with both the Blackwell Trail and Five Pits Trail close by.
