Description

One of three detached unique barns located on Spout Lane, to the northwest of the attractive village of Wennington, providing an exciting and rare opportunity to create a home for 21st century living.

Planning consent was granted by Lancaster City Council, reference number 23/01476/FUL, dated 17 June 2024 for 'Change of use, conversion and alteration of barn into one dwelling (C3) with associated access and package treatment plant'.

Proposed plans show for: Ground floor - entrance hall, cloakroom, and open plan living dining kitchen. First floor - three double bedrooms, one being en suite and a house bathroom (c 1313 sq ft/122 sq m). Outside space - parking and garden.

Available separately - situated to the north of the barns is a 1.20 acre (0.48 hectares) paddock, which is available by separate negotiation. The paddock could be available as a whole or just part of. Further details are available from the selling agent.

Services - mains electricity and water are on site. B4RN hyperfast broadband and mains gas are in the local vicinity. It will be the responsibility of each barn to install their own sewage treatment plant. Interested parties are advised to make their own enquiries in this regard.

Access - if Barn 1 is sold separately to Barns 2 and 3, then were will need to be various rights of access granted. Wennington is a small Lune Valley village on the River Wenning. The village itself is nestled between Low Bentham and Wray on the B6480 and is highly accessible for road and rail networks (there's even a railway station in the village) making it popular for families and commuters alike.

Further afield, the Cumbrian market town of Kirkby Lonsdale (6.7 miles) is a very popular destination for local residents and tourists alike with much to offer in terms of places to eat and drink, independent shops as well as branches of Boots and Booths supermarket. The Georgian City of Lancaster is 12.3 miles distant where you'll find the University, Morecambe College and the Royal Lancaster Infirmary.

In terms of easy access to great local countryside, you are surrounded! Set in the gently undulating Lune Valley, there is the neighbouring National Landscape of the Forest of Bowland and the National Parks of the Yorkshire Dales and Lake District.

Viewings are strictly by appointment only with the selling agents.
