Description
Offered to auction is a rare and exciting opportunity to acquire a substantial and highly versatile commercial plot situated on the outskirts of the sought-after village of Acle, Norfolk. The site, currently occupied by the well-known Acle Garden Machinery business (business not included in sale), comprises a mix of retail, office, workshop and storage accommodation, set within a plot approaching approximately 2 acres (subject to measured survey).
Strategically positioned on Norwich Road (A1064), just minutes from the A47, this site offers outstanding logistical advantages for commercial use, with convenient access to Norwich, Great Yarmouth and the wider Norfolk region.
Property Overview:
The current setup includes a well-maintained sales shop fronting Norwich Road, a separate office building, and a series of workshops servicing the garden machinery trade. More recently, the site has been enhanced by the addition of substantial, newly constructed steel-framed storage units, offering generous secure space suitable for a variety of commercial or storage-based enterprises. The remainder of the site provides ample hardstanding yard space for parking, deliveries and circulation.
Development Potential:
While the existing configuration supports ongoing commercial use, the site may also present significant long-term potential for alternative development. Subject to the necessary planning consents, the plot could lend itself to a residential development scheme, a mixed-use setup, or even full-scale commercial redevelopment. The generous plot size and prominent roadside position provide a flexible canvas for investors and developers alike.
Planning and Usage:
The current use of the site is commercial, supporting machinery sales and servicing, which demonstrates adaptability for other similar commercial uses such as vehicle services, warehousing, trade counters, or light industrial purposes. Prospective purchasers are advised to make their own planning enquiries with Broadland District Council regarding any changes of use or redevelopment proposals.
Location:
Acle is a growing village with a full range of amenities including schools, supermarkets, medical facilities and a train station offering regular services between Norwich and Great Yarmouth. The A47 dual carriageway is nearby, providing fast routes into Norwich (approx. 10 miles west) and Great Yarmouth (approx. 11 miles east), making this location ideal for businesses seeking regional connectivity.
Key Features:

Well-established commercial setup
Range of buildings including shop, offices, workshops and new large storage units
Excellent location with direct access to major road networks
Development potential subject to planning
