Location - Manor Farm Barn is situated on the northern edge of the rural village of Cold Ashby, Northamptonshire with views to the countryside beyond. Cold Ashby, whilst in a rural location, is well located siting part way between the county towns of Northampton (15 miles) and Leicester (20 miles) and with easy access to the A14 and the wider highway network. The property is equally well placed to provide easy access to Market Harborough and Rugby which have mainline train services to London and Birmingham in under one hour. The property has good access to both private and local education with primary schools available at Naseby, West Haddon and Guilsborough with secondary education at Guilsborough Academy.

Description - Approached via Bridle Lane, Manor Farm Barn comprises a single portal framed former agricultural building which is partially enclosed with corrugated sheeting and timber sleepers with a concrete floor. Prior approval was granted by West Northamptonshire council in a decision dated 18 April 2024 for the conversion of the building to a single residential dwelling, extending to 289m2, 3,110 square feet internally. The accommodation has been designed to provide open plan kitchen, dining and living areas, a snug, study and utility room together with a master suite (including dressing room and ensuite) and three further double bedrooms. Externally, there is a range of further redundant agricultural buildings, which are expected to be demolished, and in total the property extends to approximately 0.65 acres (0.26 hectares). The planning application reference number is: 2024/1386/PA. A copy of the planning decision notice is available online.

Services - There are currently no services connected to the property. We understand that water is available at the junction of Bridle Lane and Main Street. Electricity to the property was formerly via the overhead cable to the west of the site but has been disconnected. Prospective purchasers should make their own enquiries as to the location and availability of services. The vendors shall assist, where reasonably required, with the provision of wayleaves/easements for services across their retained land.
