Overview
The above site will be offered by public auction (subject to prior sale, reserve and conditions) at 6:30pm on Tuesday 23rd April 2024 at The View, Hill Farm Marina, Stratford Road, Wootton Wawen, Warwickshire, B95 6DE.
Introduction
Many years ago, the front half of the building on this site was the Tanworth-in-Arden telephone exchange and our client's family bought it from The Post Office in 1977. We believe that it was subsequently extended and now internally measures 13.50m (length) x 2.37m (wide to front section) x 3.20m (wide to back section). It is of brick construction with a clay tiled roof over and has a good off-road hardstanding area to the front. It sits within the designated village boundary for development purposes, which, thus, gives a good indication that redevelopment of the site is possible, but due regard needs to be given to any substantial trees.

Agent's Note
The guide price offers an indication of the price below which the vendor is not willing to sell. It is not necessarily the exact final sale price and is subject to change prior to and up until the day of the auction. Any change in the guide price will reflect a change in the reserve (a figure below which the auctioneer will not be able to sell). The reserve can be expected to be set within the guide range or not more than 10% above a single figure guide (RICS Common Auction Conditions 7th Edition).
