For Sale by Modern Method of Auction. Guide price £550,000 plus Reservation Fee.
Nestled in a sought-after position on Penn Common, just off Penn Common Road, Moles Meadow presents a rare and exciting opportunity for developers, investors, and those seeking a substantial renovation project.
Set within a generous plot and accompanied by an additional parcel of land, the property comprises two separate buildings.
The principal dwelling is a substantial barn conversion offering extensive accommodation, including five spacious bedrooms, two reception rooms, and an impressive entrance hallway.
A secondary outbuilding provides further potential for redevelopment, conversion, or ancillary use, subject to the necessary consents.
Both buildings require complete modernisation throughout, presenting a blank canvas for refurbishment, redevelopment, or enhancement.
The combination of the existing structures, generous plot size, and desirable location creates significant scope to add value and maximise future returns.
Opportunities of this nature in such a prime Penn Common setting are rarely available.
Moles Meadow offers exceptional potential for developers and investors looking to unlock the full value of a unique property with substantial land and redevelopment possibilities.
Please note that no planning permissions, consents, or approvals have been obtained in relation to the property or the accompanying land.
Any development, conversion, extension, or change of use would be subject to the necessary planning permissions and statutory consents being obtained by the purchaser.
