DESCRIPTION
An extraordinary opportunity to acquire a former agricultural barn with planning permission to make into a stunning statement home with gorgeous countryside views and 6 acres of grounds. Also available with B1 commercial use by negotiation. A Further 6 Acres of land can be available by separate negotiation.
The property has been designed for equestrian use with the planning granted for 6 stables, an outdoor sand school and ample space for storage, tack room or an undercover area for a horse box.
A further planning application has been granted for use as an artists' studio and for 1 hectare of the land (circa. 2.5 acres) to be used as residential curtilage.
The house has been beautifully designed to create an exceptional home with a double height entrance and accommodation over two levels comprising of five double bedrooms, five reception rooms and large balcony overlooking the 6 acres of grounds and the Mendip Hills.
The planning permission has been designed to create both a modern and versatile layout, perfect for a family or multi-generational living whilst still offering scope to modify subject to the necessary consents.
The building measures approx. 14.4m x 30.8m and benefits from a roller shutter door and personnel door, steel portal frame and compact earth floor. A private bore hole has been drilled for the property in readiness for a connection to be made and electricity would be accessed via a nearby line. The cost of connection and future costs will be responsibility of the purchaser.
Access is taken via a right of way, as hatched blue on the site plan, over, an existing hardcore track leading from Haydon Drove, just off the A39 (Bristol Road).
It is not within the Mendip Hills AONB, which is the other side of the A39. There are no public footpaths or rights of way crossing the land, but it is crossed by overhead electricity lines.
