Services

The septic tank would be located in the 0.44 acre field which is located on the north side of the public road.

The mains electric transformer is in the field. Mains water and electricity are already in the plot.  An electric meter has been fitted.

There is 1 gig fibre broadband available.

Road Access

The access to the plot is off the quiet unclassified public road and down the east side of the barn.  Four other parties have use of the access.  (Maintenance as per user)Turn right at the end of the barn and that’s where there are three parking spaces for the barn for sale. The owner of the farmhouse to the west of the barn for sale has right of access to the south of the barn into his courtyard. The sellers are going to install a new access into the field on the north side of the public road to access their house further to the west.  The purchaser of the plot for sale will be allowed to take access in off the public road using the proposed bellmouth to access the 0.44 acre field included with the house plot.

The Fencing off of the 0.44 Acre Field

The sellers will erect a fence up the west side of the field which is included with the plot.  There are already fences along the south, north and eastern boundaries. A horse would be ideal for pony’s and chickens.

One option would be to have a garage or outbuilding in the field to the north and secure consent for an office or bedroom within it, subject to securing planning consent.
