Scallows Lane, West Wellow, Romsey, Hampshire, SO51

Former stable blocks / agricultural buildings available to lease for business use, subject to securing planning consent, in a rural location near West Wellow in Hampshire.

The subject buildings comprise former stables which have been unoccupied for approximately five years, arranged around a small courtyard setting. They are of part brick and part rendered elevations beneath pitched roofs and are currently configured internally as individual stable units with concrete flooring. We understand the buildings benefit from water and electricity supplies.

We anticipate that substantial tenant-led works will be required to render the buildings suitable for commercial use, since they only have equestrian consent presently. Any incoming occupier will be responsible for securing any necessary planning consent for their proposed business use.
