Description

ATTENTION CASH BUYERS – Exceptional Investment and Redevelopment Opportunity

Ysgubor Hir, traditionally known as ‘The Long Barn’, is a detached stone-built barn with a stone slate roof, located in the picturesque area of Holywell, North Wales. Set in an elevated position, the property enjoys outstanding countryside views across the Dee Estuary and beyond, offering a truly stunning backdrop for a future home, business or both.

This charming and character-filled building was originally part of the historic Holway Farm and was later used as Holywell Auto Sales. It now presents a rare opportunity for full renovation and redevelopment. In need of complete restoration, the barn provides an excellent blank canvas for those with vision and creativity to bring new life to this unique structure. The potential exists to create a bespoke residence or a mixed-use property that blends traditional rustic charm with contemporary design.

Planning permission was previously discussed for the development of a four-bedroom residential cottage alongside a three-bedroom commercial unit, with ten associated parking spaces. This planning history highlights the flexibility and scope of the site, making it ideal for a variety of future uses subject to the necessary consents.

Ysgubor Hir is a truly special investment opportunity, offering heritage, location, and potential in equal measure. It will appeal to developers, investors, or anyone seeking to create a distinctive home or business premises in a desirable and scenic part of North Wales. Surrounded by countryside yet within easy reach of Holywell’s amenities and transport links, this is a project not to be missed.
