Long Toll, Woodcote, Reading

A compelling potential development and investment opportunity set within a small, gated courtyard commercial development on the southern edge of Woodcote. Beechwood Court was originally constructed in 2007 as office accommodation, the owners of Cleeve House and Goring House which forms part of the development obtained planning consent for a change of use to residential in 2022, creating a substantial duplex apartment extending to 3,624 sq ft. The property is currently let on an assured shorthold basis and is being sold with the benefit of vacant possession. The existing structure presents an excellent opportunity for further development, subject to obtaining the relevant planning consents and offers flexibility for investors or developers seeking to maximise value or a purchaser seeking a well-appointed home. It enjoys a semi-rural setting within Woodcote, a highly regarded and vibrant village, set within an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, surrounded by open countryside with extensive walking routes through woodland and farmland. The village offers a strong sense of community alongside a range of local amenities, including shops, a post office, traditional pubs and a garden centre.
