The property has the benefit of its own separate access onto the Council maintained highway known as Stanmoor Road, together with mains water and electricity supply. Offering huge scope with lapsed full planning consent dated 18th September 2008 (Planning Ref. 51/2008/007) for conversion of the barn into a three-bedroom dwelling with kitchen/dining, study, living room and separate utility/cloakroom.
