SOLD |
A unique opportunity to renovate a Grade
II* listed barn and construct an attached family house to form a delightful
courtyard development, with the benefit of full planning permission.
The handsome historic barn is set in approximately one acre of grounds
and additional land may be available.
The prominent and attractive
rural location is adjacent to a moated farmhouse about three quarters of a mile
north of the A120 and about two miles from the A12 junction and mainline
station at Marks Tey, with good commuter services to London Liverpool Street.
The historic town of Colchester is some five miles to the east, with excellent
shopping, cultural and recreational facilities. Within a mile to the north is
the picturesque village of Great Tey and The Barn Brassiere is about a half
mile distant.
Planning and Listed Building Consent
Detailed
Planning and Listed Building Consent have been obtained from Colchester Borough
Council for the repair of the historic barn, the creation of
residential/ancillary use within it, together with a spacious family house as
shown on the available reduced scale plans.
The planning consent is
subject to a Section 106 Agreement between the building owner and Colchester
Borough Council, containing ongoing legal obligation to ensure that agreed
repair works are carried out to the barn and to ensure it continues to be kept
in good condition. An information pack with copies of formal documentation is
available from the Agent's Colchester Office, giving full details of planning
conditions, duties and obligations.

As shown on
the block plan (again, available on request), the property has long frontage to
Brook Road, ample garden and courtyard area. The access is to the East side of
the Barn with right of way over the entrance drive subject to it being upgraded
to an agreed specification with the owners.
The purchasers are to erect
and maintain stockproof fencing to an agreed detailing along the east and
southern boundaries within three months of completion of purchase.
Existing Modern Barn
The existing modern barn on the site
is to be dismantled to ground level and removed from site within three months
of completion of purchase.
Petrol Storage Tank

250 gallon underground petrol storage tank formerly used on the farm remains on
site. It has been filled with concrete to Trading Standards' specification.

with.

The seller reserves the right to take a separate supply off this to serve the

to appropriate easements for services, right of way of access and the legal
obligations of the Section 106 Agreement.
