AN EXCEPTIONAL COUNTRYSIDE LIFESTYLE OPPORTUNITY
Parklands Barn presents a rare and exceptional opportunity to own a substantial countryside holding in an attractive edge-of-village setting.
Extending to 1.12 acres, the site is centred around a large, 213 sq.m. (2,292 sq.ft.) barn, measuring approx. 18.1m x 11.8m. This impressive building provides a versatile space with exciting possibilities as it lies close to several barns that have been granted planning permission to convert into new homes.
The site is flat with well-defined boundaries and benefits from 84 metres of road frontage and driveway access from Park Road.
The property is pleasantly located on the edge of the popular village of Tydd St. Giles, within easy reach of the historic market town of Wisbech. With good road connections via the A17 & A47, the site perfectly combines tranquillity with convenience, making it an appealing prospect for a wide range of buy.
So, whether you envision a private equestrian retreat, a thriving smallholding, or a bespoke ‘Grand Design’ (subject to planning), this rare slice of Cambridgeshire countryside could be the perfect canvas for your dreams.
