PROPERTY
Lot 2
Comprises buildings of mixed construction, with Class Q consent for the change of use of an agricultural building and old milking parlour into two dwellings.

Lot 2 has a shared access from the council road and includes part of the field to the north of the buildings. It sits in a total plot of 0.83 acres.

Lot 1 has its own private entrance from the council road and has a total plot size of 0.88 acres.

Lot 3
Comprises a single storey building of concrete block construction with a sheeted roof over. The Class Q consent provides for conversion of the building into a 3 bedroom detached house with a floorspace of 122 sqm (1,317 sqft). Lot 3 has a shared access from the council road and includes part of the field to the north and east of the buildings. It has a total plot size of 1.01 acres.
