Description

From Marshside Road, there is the existing church building, with car parking forecourt and access to the side. We understand the Church buildings extend to approximately 10,000 sq ft and occupy a site of 0.52 acres or thereabouts.

The amalgamed Church buildings comprise the original chapel of worship (which we understand dates back to 1876 and extends to approximately 2,145 square feet), the church hall, library, offices and former caretaker's flat. These extend to approx. 5,335 sq ft. Finally, the kitchens, rear hall, classrooms and toilets, total approx. 2,521 sq ft.

To the rear of this cluster of Church buildings, there is a parcel of predominantly flat and cleared land extending to c. 1.34 acres, which historically we understand was used for overflow car parking and is understood to not have been used for a number of years. There is also a single width access off Radnor Drive, which leads to a hardstanding car parking area.

Proposal: The existing Church is not Listed but is considered a local heritage asset. A copy of a structural report by Keskin Consulting Structural Engineers is available on request, detailing structural issues with the existing building which concludes that in excess of £750,000 plus VAT & fees may be required to restore the building.

Offers are invited on a 'subject to planning' basis with the assumption of complete of redevelopment and vacant possession.

All offers will be considered on their individual merits.
