About
Friars Manor was previously used as an Agricultural Barn and was partially converted in 2010 where it has been occupied since.
The current owners lived here for nearly 5 years, acquiring planning permission with the vision of renovating Friars Manor to create a high-end luxury family home.
Fortunately for the lucky next owner, they have been unable to due to work and time commitments to fulfil this wonderful opportunity.
This is genuinely a rare chance to create the dream home in a sought after location and with easy access into London.
This is a very special space, there are no other plots of land like this in the local area. As it stands now, there are currently 4/5 bedrooms, large open living/kitchen area and two bathrooms.
This gives the potential purchaser the opportunity to live amongst the renovation if they desired.
In addition to the 'main' barn, there is a large barn/garage with bi-fold doors to the garden, together with another barn/workshop which could, subject to planning provide an annex/office in addition to the main house.
Outside, the property really does continue to excel, the Barns are situated to the rear of the garden with views to the front over open countryside.
The main residence is wonderfully masked, with high screen hedges to the rear and a number of Laurel hedges, ornamental Pear trees, field Maple, Acacia and other trees providing privacy to the front, along with three entrances and a large parking area.
The rest of the garden is currently largely laid to lawn and is finished of with the recently refurbished oversized pond. The overall plot extends to approx. 1.5 acres(sts).
