#TheGardenOfEngland

A most interesting part residential and commercial investment opportunity with development potential* situated in the heart of the highly regarded village of Wye.
*Subject to planning consent


Church Street is situated in the centre of the highly regarded village of Wye in the Conservation Area forming a small high street of shops and businesses together with offices and residential property. At the far end of the street is the Parish Church and at the opposite end is Bridge Street which runs down to the station.
The village of Wye has long been favoured for a greater variety of facilities than most villages including restaurants, pubs, a convenience store and choice of schools including primary school, Free School and Spring Grove Preparatory School. The railway station has some HS1 early morning stopping services, whilst other trains connect with both Canterbury and Ashford, each providing high speed connections to Ebbsfleet, Stratford and St. Pancras International Stations - all in under an hour.
The surrounding countryside around the village is picturesque, including the North Downs which are designated as an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and SSSI.
17, 19 & 21 Church Street
A rare opportunity to acquire a listed Grade II period building within the Conservation Area providing an immediate investment opportunity currently divided into a shop premises (trading as a butchers), as well as 3 bed-sitting rooms, all currently let, and a 2 bedroom house and a further residential space. It is thought that either a large single residence could be converted from the existing accommodation or even three separate dwellings incorporating the shop could be created, whilst the rear courtyard may offer potential for conversion of the existing garage workshop (lapsed planning) and perhaps space for a new dwelling, all subject to the necessary planning consent.
The Gardens
To the rear of the property is a good size courtyard which has a vehicle access via a garage style door to one side. The courtyard forms the outside space for the residential part of the property as well as parking and garaging. There is an independent w.c. for use by the shop premises and a suitable right of way would need to be retained for this and deliveries via the side access. Beyond the courtyard is a garden area as well as access to the garage/workshop which once had planning for conversion but has long since lapsed.
Services
All mains services are believed to be available but intending purchasers should make their own enquiries.
Agent’s Note:
Shop premises – the shop currently trades as a Butchers
