High Street, Moreton-in-Marsh, Gloucestershire. GL56 0AD

Retail Property (High Street) for sale in Moreton-in-Marsh

Prominently to the north side of the High Street in Moreton-in-Marsh and an integral part of the street scene of this tree-lined boulevard, this inner-terraced, three-storey Grade II listed former gentleman's residence has been a retail outlet for many years.

Full of the innate character and charm of a mid-17th century property manifesting the many exposed Cotswold stone walls, flagstone floors and exposed beams, the property has a ground floor retail space with a bay window and part-flagstone floors. A further retail area of 7.35 metre leads to a rear courtyard and, in turn, to a small barn.

The first and second floors of the property are similar with many character features and easterly-facing windows with engaging aspects over the tree-lined High Street. There is a cloakroom on the first floor and a shower room on the second floor. Both rooms also have central original timbers batons for sub-dividing the rooms if required.

The barn is currently accessed from the rear courtyard and has a well-fitted ground floor kitchenette, a separate wash room and a room on the first floor. Both properties have their own individual gas fired central heating systems, combination boilers and independent electric supplies.

Further access is gained from the rear courtyard to a large garden area with mature trees, parking for several vehicles and a single driveway with shared vehicular access to Hospital Road.

There is no planning permission currently on the property for any other than its existing use although it is worth noting that the current owners were in the process of obtaining planning permission for a single storey two bedroom and bathroom extension to the barn. Draft plans can be made available to any prospective buyer.

Whilst suitable as a retail outlet the property lends itself, subject to the usual Grade II listed planning consent, to be returned to its former glory and would make an excellent character town house with potentially a living room and large diner kitchen on the ground floor and three/four bedrooms and bathroom on the upper floors. Please bear in mind, however, the property is being sold as seen and not subject to any suitable planning permission being obtained.

The property is set back from the main road with a grass verge and on-street parking immediately in front of the property.

The town has several supermarkets, a community hospital, two doctors surgeries, a wide range of quality shops, restaurants and hostelries and the all important railway station with links to Oxford and London Paddington.
