DESCRIPTION: A very rare opportunity to purchase a large redundant currently 2,565 square foot old agricultural building set in approximately an acre (TBV) of significant height, depth and width, also with a concrete base and low block base sides. In addition, the barn’s construction also benefits from a solid reinforced concrete frame designed to withstand heavy duty farm vehicles etc.
Previously, there is believed to have been a three-phase electrical supply connected to this large redundant barn and there are still old electrical cables currently attached to the building (interested parties must make their own investigations for further information as to these services still being available). Furthermore, there may have also been a water supply, although there is no obvious evidence of this currently and therefore any interested buyer should make their own enquiries as to any past water supply. However, we understand that there are rights of easements for services to be run to this building along the private gated lane which runs beyond Brewer Street.
This substantial sized old barn could quite easily offer itself for conversion into both commercial and residential uses subject to planning. The height of the building could possibly provide the option for another level, therefore creating a floor area in the region of 4,000 square feet.
Therefore, set within its own grounds approaching an acre (TBV), this barn if converted with residential planning and incorporating a second level, could provide the opportunity for a purchaser to create a substantial sized luxury residence located in a wonderful semi-rural setting.
Also, due to the possible size of this barn, there could even be the consideration to create a conversion into more than one luxury holiday letting unit (subject to planning), all of which could possibly enjoy stunning views of the adjoining countryside.
PLEASE NOTE: There is both a commercial and residential overage on the barn of 30% based on the difference in value from obtaining either type of planning permission. Further information can be obtained from the agent.
SITUATION: Located on the rural outskirts of the highly sought after and picturesque village of Lamberhurst, this impressive sized old redundant agricultural barn, which is set at the end of a quiet private gated lane beyond Brewer Street, enjoys wonderful country views and is within easy walking distance of the excellent village amenities.
Tunbridge Wells with its mainline station for London is also only a short drive away, including its wonderful range of shopping and leisure facilities.
MAIN MEASUREMENTS FOR BARN:
LENGTH OF MAIN SECTION: 76 FEET
WIDTH OF MAIN SECTION: 26 FEET
TOTAL SQUARE FEET FOR MAIN BARN SECTION FOR GROUND FLOOR AREA = 1,976 FEET
Theoretically, there could be the possibility of creating a further floor level subject to planning, therefore creating a potential main total floor area of circa 3,952 square feet.
FURTHER GROUND FLOOR SECTION TO TOP SIDE OF BARN: 31 FEET X 19 FEET = 589 SQUARE FEET
DIRECTIONS: On entering the village of Lamberhurst, turn into Brewer Street. Then proceed to the end of Brewer Street, taking the straight left fork and passing by some modern properties on your right, you will then reach a locked five bar gate in front of the old farm access lane that the property has an easement right of way over. However, there is also a public foot path that runs alongside this private access road, so you will then be able to proceed by foot to the barn’s location, which is a few hundred yards along this straight farm vehicle access road at the end and located to your right side.
