Description - Halls are delighted with instructions to offer this exciting development opportunity for sale by private treaty.
The sale provides a rare opportunity for developers to acquire a range of attractive traditional farm buildings with Full Planning Permission approved for conversion in to two architect designed dwellings, one of which will be two storey and the other single storey, extending, in all, to around 2800 sqft, situated in this particularly popular semi rural location.
Accessed from a small country lane and set within grounds extending to around 0.75 of an acre, the site provides ample space for parking and gardens ensuring the completed units are extremely saleable.
The completed units will provide one 2/3 bedroom two storey barn with a ground floor bedroom and two first floor bedrooms and a second unit providing single storey accommodation including two bedrooms. Barn two will benefit from a detached storage building.
Each unit will have ample car parking space and good sized gardens.
This interesting development opportunity should be of particular interest to developers or possibly owner/occupiers with a potential for a family to live in barn one and a dependant relative in barn two.
Situation - Horton Farm Barns are situated in the rural hamlet of Horton just over one mile from the north Shropshire town of Wem which has an excellent range of shopping, recreational and educational facilities, yet is also within easy motoring distance of the larger centres of Whitchurch (10 miles) and Shrewsbury (14 miles), both of which have a more comprehensive range of amenities of all kinds.
