Description
Prestige & Village are proud to be able to offer this incredible opportunity to acquire and develop this small holding/campsite business. Sitting in it's own grounds extending to 18 acres of rolling countryside, Hill Farm/Rosewood sits on the outskirts of the picturesque and sought after village of Great Bardfield. Planning permission has been granted to convert an existing barn into an attractive two bedroom dwelling. There is also potential to develop two further substantial outbuildings, subject to planning. These building are currently used as facilities for the camping business and a further large barn (please see photos and drone video). The picturesque panoramic views, over rolling countryside, are bordered in part by the River Pant. The lower portion of the plot is currently utilised as a camping venue, generating a five figure income (however, the potential income is much higher as the current proprietors are only running half the pitches that could be utilised). An approved application allows for additional land use, permitting a total of 15 tent pitches (seven extra tent pitches during May to September) and an additional four pitches for campervans, RVs or caravans during the months of April to October (Planning Application Ref: 21/00861/FUL). Hill Farm and the existing bungalow, Rosewood, currently consists of two bedrooms, a sitting room, dining room, recently fitted kitchen, large conservatory and a bathroom (please see floorplan) and offers comfortable accommodation during construction. Braintree District Council has granted planning approval (17/01851/FUL) for the construction of a modern, detached country residence with four bedrooms (although we understand that this could be enlarged if required). The footings for the new dwelling have been laid so the planning is still current and the new dwelling will serve as a replacement for the existing property.
