8 bedroom barn conversion for sale

This most intriguing property comes onto the market for the first time in many years and briefly comprises a main four bedroom house, a three bedroom annexe and one bedroom cottage with extensive outbuildings and land.

Introduction - The property is well located with easy access off the A441 and the Old Redditch Road, Bordesley. There is easy communication to the M42 Motorway (J2) and thus to the M5 and M42 motorways.

The property is situated approximately 2 miles north of Redditch town centre, 4 miles east of Bromsgrove, 1 ? miles south of Alvechurch and some 10 miles south of Birmingham city centre. The NEC and Birmingham International Airport and future HS2 Hub are all within easy driving distance, whilst there are fast services on the newly electrified 'cross city' railway line from both Redditch and Alvechurch stations to Birmingham (New Street) ( 35 minutes) and Lichfield.

The double glazed property was converted from an extensive range of farm buildings some years ago and has the benefit of extensive accommodation laid out mainly on one floor, which includes a three reception/four bedroom main residence, one reception/three bedroom annexe and one reception/one bedroom cottage, all set around a central car park/courtyard/parking area.

To the west of the property are extensive ranges of outbuildings, including a stable block, barns, offices and mobile home, the whole set in grounds extending in total to approximately 1.71 acres (0.690 ha).

The whole gives flexible living accommodation for perhaps an extended family/lettings/business use (STPP if required) and, with the stables and land, great scope for the equestrian enthusiast to develop this area of the property to suit their needs.

Given the extensive footprint of the former farm buildings and outbuildings, there might (STPP) be an opportunity for some further residential development on the site.

Early viewing is advised for this property with extensive views westwards over rolling Worcestershire countryside.
