Description

A substantial timber barn/stables of approximately 1,720 square feet set within a rectangular level parcel of land of approximately 2.1 acres, for sale by Public Auction on Wednesday 17th June 2026.

Located to the east of Middle Drove in the village of Marshland St James, approximately 8 miles north?west of Downham Market, this timber barn and stable complex sits within a rural setting and is arranged around a central courtyard. The overall plot extends to roughly 2.1 acres, with the majority laid to grass paddock enclosed by fenced boundaries.

The buildings include two stables and three additional lockable units with plasterboard walls and ceilings, previously used for storage and as kennels. There is also a covered area currently utilised as a wood store, alongside a smaller secure storage unit. To the rear of the main structure is a covered parking bay suitable for a farm vehicle. The site benefits from a metered electrical supply, and water is presently sourced via the neighbouring property.

Set back from the road, the property is accessed through gated entry into the courtyard, with side access leading to the rear of the buildings and the remaining land. Nearby examples of similar buildings have successfully obtained planning consent for conversion to residential use, suggesting potential for future redevelopment, subject to the necessary approvals from the local planning authority.
