ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

As part of the consent for the three Barn Conversions, it was envisaged that they would be accessed and developed from the existing roadway leading to the property as hatched red on the plan included in these Particulars. This would also lead to across the hatched area between the two buildings now being offered for sale and we are advised of the following: Red Hatched Area is a shared access as defined in the transfer of the three buildings and this is an area over which the property has a right of access and turning, subject to an obligation to contribute towards its upkeep. The Blue Area was also transferred to No. 3 building which was subject to restrictive covenants and it can only be used for the parking of private motor vehicles and not a standard 4 x 4 and not to be fenced. The additional Red Hatched Area is provided so that the intention is that this area will serve all three Barns but each will contribute a proportion of the cost of maintenance with the title being transferred to the last of the three Barns being sold. The development of the two barns / building can, therefore, effectively be separately accessed as distinct from the development of the three new dwellings / building plots forming the greater area (central and northern sections) of the yard.
