DESCRIPTION 

Yarner Park & West Yarner

A unique opportunity to acquire a development site with planning approval for ground floor business/workshop accommodation offering potential for flexible developed space and a spacious detached single storey building as an investment. Please note either site is available to be sold separately. 

West Yarner 

West Yarner is a detached single storey building with part timber clad and mainly rendered elevations under a pitched slated roof, standing in large mature gardens and grounds with ample parking. The property has been used and continues to be used as a school and is sold subject to a lease to On Track Education.

The accommodation extends to about 250 square metres and is arranged as seven classrooms with a kitchen and toilet facilities in the main building and to the rear is a further attached building with separate access from the outside, used as a classroom with kitchen facility and separate toilet facility.

Yarner Park 

Yarner Park is a site of about 1.79 acres (0.727 ha) of land with full planning permission granted on 24 January 2025 in accordance with application number 1863/23/FUL.  The site has excellent vehicular access from the A385 over a concrete driveway and access into the site.

Planning approval has been granted for approximately 275 square metres of single storey commercial accommodation.  The accommodation offers flexibility with potentially 4 units of 50 square metres and 1 of 75 square metres or 11 units of 25 square metres. 

The plans have been passed in accordance with application 1860/23/FUL and the approved plans are included with the sales particulars.

A single storey former storage building is already constructed on site comprising concrete block under a slated roof with dimensions of approximately 7m x 10m.  Accessed from the main driveway by the concrete road, this building would also suit a commercial use.

Access for both sites is via a concrete splay. There is a right of way access to the properties at the back over Yarner Park, but not over West Yarner.

Immediately to the east of the driveway is a garage building having concrete block under a pitched roof with dimensions of 12m x 6m, totalling 72 square metres.  The building would have potential for conversion to further commercial use.
