Description
Sopley Forge was for many years run by the late owner as a blacksmiths that produced bespoke gates/railings etc. The late owner obtained planning permission in 1991 to build a house attached to The Forge. There is a condition on the planning permission for the house that it can only be occupied by the owner of The Forge. The Forge is classed as commercial (rateable value from 1st April 2026 is £8100) and in order to be classed as residential would require an application to NFDC. We believe the property offers great potential for a multitude of uses home/business/redevelopment etc all subject to planning permission. Any prospective buyers are strongly advised to make enquiries of NFDC as to their intentions with the property before offering and if they are planning on raising finance for the purchase ensure they have discusssed the commercial aspect with their advisors.
