Property for auction on 9th September at 13:00 at Avery Fields, 79 Sandon Road, Edgbaston, Birmingham B17 8DT

A redevelopment opportunity comprising a former 29 Bed Care Home, occupying a substantial corner plot extending to an area of 0.34 acres (1,384 sq m) and prominently situated at the junction of Marshall Lake Road and Cranmore Road.

The property is of two storey brick construction surmounted by a pitched tile clad roof and is in dilapidated condition having suffered from fire damage and vandalism with significant repair and refurbishment required to return the property to a habitable condition.

The property forms part of a highly regarded mixed use area containing a range of good quality residential dwelling houses and is situated directly opposite Sears Retail Park which includes M & S, Next and Boots Chemist, conveniently within mile of Stratford Road (A34) which provides direct access to Shirley Shopping Centre and the M42 Motorway (Junction 4).

Planning:
Planning consent was granted for change of use from residential to Nursing Home for the elderly on 6th January 1986 and therefore the current C2 use (Residential Care Home) is duly established.

The site provides scope for demolition and redevelopment of the existing premises and may be suitable for a variety of residential or commercial uses, and all interested parties must satisfy themselves prior to bidding by contacting the local planning department at Solihull Council to discuss any proposed redevelopment schemes.

Accommodation
Due to significant fire damage the accommodation is deemed unsafe for internal inspection, however site access will be available prior to the auction and all interested parties should refer to the viewing schedule online.

Note: The adjacent semi-detached house known as 118 Marshall Lake Road will be offered for sale as a separate auction Lot and all interested parties should refer to the title plans for each property which will identify the exact site boundaries for each Lot.
