Baycroft Barns, Wroxall

A characterful residential development site with a three bedroom cottage (in need of refurbishment), with separate planning permission for a substantial residential barn conversion utilising the existing cottage, detached annexe and separate detached dwelling. Situated on the edge of Appuldurcombe Park with extensive countryside outlooks.

Baycroft Barns - Situated in a quiet location along a private track leading from Rew Lane and with views to the historic Appuldurcombe House, the property comprises a three bedroomed cottage and a range of stone barns benefitting from full planning permission for the conversion of redundant farm buildings to extend existing house; proposed annexe and detached dwelling.

The existing dwelling comprises a three-bedroom cottage extending to approximately 80sqm. The accommodation currently includes a spacious kitchen/dining room, separate lounge, three bedrooms and a family bathroom. Constructed of traditional Isle of Wight stone, the cottage retains considerable character and provides a solid basis for improvement. The property would benefit from a programme of refurbishment throughout.

The property benefits from comprehensive planning consent that enhances its development potential. Full planning permission was granted in August 2019 (reference 19/00805/FUL) for the conversion of redundant farm buildings to extend the existing dwelling, together with the creation of a separate annexe and an additional detached dwelling. All planning conditions were subsequently discharged in December 2021 under reference 21/02416/DIS. The approved scheme provides an opportunity to create a substantial residential development whilst retaining the character and appearance of the traditional farmstead buildings.

The property is available as a whole with parking and garden area.
