Potential Barn Conversion Opportunity – Lapsed Planning Permission
An opportunity to acquire a barn which previously benefited from planning permission for conversion into a four-bedroom dwelling. The property benefits from a large rear garden and off-road parking, and is situated in a semi-rural location close to the village of Cross Hands, which offers a range of local amenities including shops, restaurants and leisure facilities.
The property also benefits from convenient access to the A48, providing direct routes to Carmarthen and the M4 motorway at Pont Abraham. The previous planning permission was granted under reference W/29912 and has now lapsed. Interested parties are advised to make their own enquiries with Carmarthenshire County Council regarding the planning history and potential future use of the property.
Barn Double door entrance with split level inside.
Outside Front driveway and rear garden.
