A Rare Opportunity to Purchase Two Homes on One Plot
Plot with Approximately 1.6 Acres of Gardens
Potential For Development (Subject to Planning Approval)

Description:
A fantastic opportunity to purchase two three-bedroom detached homes on a stunning plot of approximately 1.6 acres. Perfect for families that wish to live together bordered only by farmland and countryside, or anyone wishing to let one of the houses as a rental or holiday home to provide an income stream. There are also development opportunities on this large valuable plot. Although offered for sale under a single title, planning permission has been secured for separation of the dwellings as required, with generous gardens and outdoor space. The Cottage dates from the mid 1800s with accommodation extending to 1600 square foot approximately. The Barn was purpose-built in 2004 offering approximately 1200 square feet of accommodation. There are raised vegetable beds and numerous versatile outbuildings currently offering art studios, workshop and fitness facilities, as well as greenhouses and a chicken run. In 2008 the cottage was re-wired and re-plumbed for hot water using a new oil-fired Rayburn which also acts as the source of heating. Both homes benefit from water softeners and sewage treatment plants, one newly installed in 2024, and have separate council tax and electricity billing. The Barn has an EV charging point installed.

Important Notice:
For each Lot, a contract documentation fee of £1,500 (inclusive of VAT) is payable to Barnard Marcus Auctions by the buyer. The seller may charge additional fees payable upon completion. If applicable, such fees are detailed within the Special Conditions of Sale. Buyers are deemed to bid in full knowledge of this.
The Guide Price quoted must not be relied upon by prospective purchasers as a valuation or assessment of value of the property. It is intended to provide purchasers with an indication of the region at which the reserve may be set at the time of going to press. The guide price may be subject to variation and interested parties are advised to make regular checks for variations and should be aware that the reserve price may be either below or above the quoted guide price.
Prospective purchasers should also be aware that the eventual sale price may be above or below the guide level dependent upon competition, and should therefore not presume the guide to be indicative of the final expected sale price or the price the property is available at.
When setting the guide price, the auctioneers have given consideration to the seller’s instructions in respect of their indicated reserve price at the time of instruction. The reserve price, (the level below which the property will not be sold), remains confidential between the seller and the auctioneer. The guide price therefore, is intended to indicate the region at which the reserve price is intended to be set. The seller will confirm their final reserve price close to the auction date and if appropriate the auctioneers may adjust the guide price to reflect this.
Whilst Barnard Marcus make every effort to ensure the safety and security of viewers at properties, we have not carried out a detailed Health & Safety inspection of properties in our auctions and cannot therefore guarantee the safety and security of viewers.
Prospective purchasers and bidders attend properties entirely at their own risk. Particular care should be taken when accessing cellars, attics, exterior grounds and outbuildings and boundaries. All non-conducted inspections of vacant sites should be made in daylight hours only and entry into such sites is entirely at the viewers risk.
