Description
A rare chance to acquire a pair of barns occupying a corner plot on the edge of the popular Essex village of Hempstead.
The sale comprises 2 barns of predominantly brick construction under predominantly pitched roofs covered with corrugated sheeting, but with areas of flat felt roofing to parts.
The right hand side barn has a gross external area of approximately 110m², whilst the second barn has a gross external area of approximately 166m².
It is understood that the barns have historically been used for storage/workshop purposes, with light and power previously connected.
The barns are in need of significant repair/refurbishment but offer a rare chance to acquire storage/workshop space in a village location.
There is a concrete pad to the front of the barns which provides off road parking for multiple vehicles. To the rear and right hand side of the barns is a small amount of outside space which would benefit from further clearance. The rural position benefits from paddock/field views to both the rear and right hand sides.
Tenure
Freehold with vacant possession
Location
The village of Hempstead lies approximately 7 miles to the east of Saffron Walden, and around 6 miles south of Haverhill. From the centre of the village, head north on High Street before turning left onto Witch Tree Lane. Continue along Witch Tree Lane for approximately 300m where the sheds will be found on the left hand side, shortly after Wytchtree Cottage.
Auctioneers Note
Please note that the sale is for the middle and right hand barns only. The left hand barn and the Nissen hut (to the rear) are not owned by the seller and therefore not included in this sale. The barns are no longer connected to Wych Tree Cottage. See legal pack and Title Plan for details.
