Lot 1 - Guide Price £900,000

Flaxlands Cottage, Stables, Barn and approximately 10.82 acres (4.37 ha) of pasture land. Edged red on enclosed plan.

Lot 2 - Guide Price £800,000

Flaxlands Kennels & Cattery, and Swallowcroft (2-bedroom detached bungalow). The property will benefit from a vehicular right of access (for residential purposes only) over the area hatched green on the plan. The property is edged blue on the enclosed plan.

Situation

The property is situated on a rural lane, approximately 3 miles north of Royal Wootton Bassett, which provides a range of everyday amenities. Flaxlands is also situated within 4 miles of Junction 16 of the M4 motorway, providing access to Bristol and London.

Residential

The accommodation of Flaxlands Cottage to the ground floor provides entrance porch, lounge with doors to the garden, fully fitted kitchen/diner with log burner, cloakroom, and utility housing the boiler. To the first floor there are four good-sized bedrooms and a family bathroom, with loft storage also available. Externally, the gardens of Flaxlands Cottage are extensive and well maintained with parking for several vehicles and various timber outbuildings.

The bungalow known as Swallowcroft is in good condition, with accommodation comprising lounge with wood burner, kitchen, utility, two bedrooms, bathroom, and loft storage. There is parking to the front of the property and rear gardens.

Equestrian

Accessed over a separate driveway, and set back from the lane, are the 6 stables, tack room and storage barn, in excellent condition. The building is of a brick construction with timber cladding, slate roof, timber doors and concrete floor. We understand as part of the 2007 planning consent the stables and barn shall only be used for the private stabling of horses and associated storage. We also understand their use is limited to those occupying the main house (Flaxlands Cottage). However, the stables can be let to a private individual (not residing in the cottage), under a common law tenancy rather than a business.

The land to the north-west of the cottage and outbuildings extends to approximately 10.82 acres (4.37ha). The land is suitable for grazing and mowing and is subdivided into encloses by post and rail fencing, with mature hedgerow boundaries.

Business

Flaxlands Kennels & Cattery provides 36 dog kennels and 12 cat pens, with a kitchen, staff toilet, reception/office, and grooming parlour. The buildings are of a concrete block construction with timber cladding and slate roof. There is a large parking area for customers and an off-lead play area measuring approximately 0.30 acres, with separate access for the business off Flaxlands Lane. Accounts are available to show the success of the business over a sustained period, which is available as part of the transaction.

Services

The site benefits from mains water and electricity, with all properties connected to the bio-pure system for drainage, licenced to discharge in the ditch. The house and bungalow are connected to oil central heating, with separate supplies of water and electricity to each property.
