Description
The farmyard is located within the heart of Great Wolford village, a small rural settlement only 3 miles to the north east of the vibrant market town of Moreton-in-Marsh, with its mainline railway station and range of facilities including two large supermarkets, hospital, doctors surgery, shops, restaurants, pubs and a weekly market. More comprehensive facilities can be found at Stratford-upon-Avon, Oxford and Cheltenham.
Great Wolford is conveniently located with the A429 providing links to Stratford-upon-Avon and Warwick to the north, Stow - on- the-Wold and Cirencester to the south. The A44 connects the site to Oxford to the south-east and Evesham to northeast. Mainline railway services are available from Moreton-in Marsh railway station, with regular trains to Oxford and London Paddington. The popular Daylesford Organic Shop is approximately 8 miles away.
Bruton Knowles is delighted to bring to the market the historic farm yard in the village of Great Wolford, on the edge of the Cotswolds.
With a range of period farm buildings and a central village location, it offers a exceptional opportunity to create a bespoke, high quality residential development scheme, subject to gaining the necessary planning consents.
Extending to approximately 0.33 acres, the farmyard comprises three period, Cotswold stone, agricultural buildings and two steel framed Dutch barns. It was formerly part of the Batsford Estate, and includes architectural detailing that reflects its heritage origins. The site fronts onto two roads, The Green to the north and the main village road (unnamed) to the west. Access is via a vehicular gate onto The Green.
The Barn:
The traditional threshing barn extending to a ground floor area of approximately 1,580 sq ft, positioned adjacent to the road, incorporating an attached cart hovel. Character features include arrow slit windows and full height opposing wagon doors. The building offers potential for conversion to a principle residence, with some scope for first floor accommodation.
Milking Parlour, Meal House and Calf Pens:
A substantial, linear building extending to a ground floor area of approximately 2,789 sq ft, split into three sections, comprising the milking parlour, meal house and calf pens. Additional floorspace is located on the first floor, which has not been included within the floorplan measurements. The building backs onto The Green, with each section benefitting from independent pedestrian access off The Green the rear of the property. The building offers potential for conversion in to a single or multiple residences.
Nag Stable
The detached Nag Stable is located adjacent to the Calf Pens and extends to a ground floor area of approximately 305 sqft, offering potential scope for ancillary use or standalone conversion.
Steel Portal Frame Barns
Located centrally within the site are two steel portal framed buildings, in poor repair, but which may offer scope for replacement with standalone dwellings or ancillary accommodation.
The site benefits from mains electricity connection, to include three phase supply and mains water connection from 'The Green'. We understand that mains sewerage is available within the village. The existing surface water drain located centrally within the yard currently drains into retained Parsonage Farm, and diversion of this at the point of development works is to be a condition of the sale.
Please note we have not carried out any tests in this regard and recommend purchasers undertake their own investigations.
It is estimated that the site has scope for residential conversion/development, subject to securing the necessary planning consents.
The site falls within the administrative area of Stratford-on-Avon District Council. Planning policy is covered by the Stratford-on-Avon District Core Strategy 2011-2031 which was adopted in July 2016. Stratford-on-Avon and Warwick District Council are currently working together to produce a new Local Plan for South Warwickshire.
The site is not located within the Green Belt nor National Landscape Areas/AONB. However, it is located within the village's Conservation Area and close to the GII Listed Church of St. Michael.
The site is for sale by way of Informal Tender with unconditional offers invited by Noon on Tuesday 23rd June. Offers are to be submitted in accordance with the financial proposal form (available in the data room).
