Freehold derelict stone-built barn built on a site area of 0.83 hectares (2.05 acres) with potential for alternative use, subject to consents. Vacant possession.

Description

The barn’s rustic exterior features gracefully aged stonework and local natural slate, giving it an authentic and traditional appearance. Subject to the relevant planning consents being obtained, there is potential to convert the barn for an alternative use. Nestled off the beaten track, the barn is embraced, by vast fields and vibrant green surroundings, set against the backdrop of undulating countryside. The building has previously formed part of a wider holding and has been used for the housing of livestock and storage of fodder.

We understand the Gross External Area (GEA) of the barn is approximately 190.00 sq m (2,045 sq ft).

Local Authority: Peak District National Park (01629 816200) www.peakdistrict.gov.uk

Location

The property is accessed via Snake Road, which adjoins the Snake Pass route, connecting Glossop and the Ladybower Reservoir at Ashopton.
