A parcel of land measuring 3.89 acre (stms) adjacent to the A14
Some 10 miles to the east of Bury St Edmunds and running parallel with the A14 is this 3.89 acre parcel of land.
The property has gated access from both Kiln Lane and the slip road serving the businesses opposite. Having operated as a commercial wood yard previously we believe there is considerable potential for alternative use (STPP).
The previous owner also had temporary consent to live on the land in his mobile home although this has lapsed. This adds another aspect to the property and makes for an interesting speculative opportunity.
NOTE - We are advised mains electric, water and telephone are connected along with septic tank drainage.
Viewing The property can be viewed at any reasonable time during daylight hours and no appointment is required.
Tenure: Freehold
Administration Fee: £1200 inc VAT payable on exchange of contracts.
Buyer's Premium Fee: £1500 inc VAT payable on exchange of contracts.
Disbursements: Please see the legal pack for any disbursements listed that may become payable by the purchaser on completion.
