Bridge Courtyard presents a superb opportunity to form a collection of three residential dwellings. The main barn unit provides approved planning consent to convert and form a pair of substantial semi detached houses with gardens to the rear. Current plans allow for open plan living on the ground floor with a utility room and a cloakroom. Two double bedrooms would further feature on the ground floor with the main bedroom upstairs along with a family bathroom. Ample parking is provided.
To the south side of the site there is a substantial and detached period barn unit. Currently being extended off the eastern elevation this superb dwelling could form approximately 2,400 sq ft of accommodation which includes four double bedrooms (four en suite and one en suite dressing room), superb open plan living space with east-facing bi-fold doors, utility room, cloakroom and a store room. The garden would be to the rear, extending east.
West of the larger barn unit there is a further detached annexe, recently renovated, which includes an open plan sitting room/kitchenette, shower room and a double bedroom beyond. In our opinion, this useful addition provides an opportunity to form a variety of uses. The main grounds to Bridge Courtyard extend to the North which includes expansive areas laid to lawn and a recently constructed tennis court.
