Description

For sale by Auction on 30 September 2026.
Offered in partnership with Shouler & Son

Former Village Hall in disrepair standing on a good size plot in a beautiful, sought after village location.

The potential building plot, subject to planning permission, with the derelict village hall on it presents a mix of charm and opportunity, set within the quaint surroundings of a tranquil village of Holwell.

The plot is reasonably spacious, bordered by overgrown hedges and trees that provide a natural sense of privacy and seclusion.

The centrepiece of the plot, the old village hall, stands as a testament to the history and character of the location. Although in a state of disrepair, the structure could perhaps be restored to its former glory or sympathetically integrated into a new design, offering a unique focal point for any redevelopment subject to planning.
Utilities such as water, electricity, and sewage might already be partially in place but have not been tested, thanks to the village hall's previous operational state, although modern upgrades would be necessary.

Overall, this plot with its derelict village hall holds immense potential. It is an ideal site for a visionary project—be it a restored community hub, a unique residential conversion, or a blend of new constructions that pay homage to the historical essence of the site, all subject to obtaining any necessary planning permissions.
