Commercial Property
Valuable redevelopment opportunity within a former Schoolroom to the rear of Belper Methodist Church.
A single-storey building providing assembly hall, stage, meeting rooms, and amenity facilities, extending to 3,359 sq. ft./312.2 sqm. or thereabouts, together with six allocated car parking spaces.
Situated close to Aldi, Ada Belfield Care Home and De Bradelei Mill.
Suitable for a variety of uses, subject to obtaining the necessary planning consents
Description:
The schoolrooms are believed to have been constructed around 1841, and extended to the western gable in or around 1908, with a further extension added to the north in 1966. The schoolrooms are of traditional brick construction with part-rendered pebbledash finish, under a timber trussed roof overclad with interlocking concrete tiles. Flooring is suspended timbers, and the windows are single-glazed, painted timber to the main building, and part-timber and part-UPVC to the 1960s extension, which is under a flat felted roof.
Internally, there is a reception area, with access to the main assembly hall, which includes a stage, beyond which are two rooms, together with kitchen. Within the extension is a corridor, which provides access to ladies and gents WC facilities.
Externally, are six allocated car parking spaces to the northwest of the schoolrooms, together with external land, and there will be a right-of-way over the existing service road.
Services:
The electricity supply is currently fed from the adjoining Church, which is to be isolated. It will be the responsibility of the purchaser(s) to obtain separately metered supplies to the property.
Planning:
The property falls within a Conservation Area, and is within the Derwent Valley World Heritage Site, and within the curtilage of the Central Methodist Church, which is a Grade-II Listed building.
The local planning authority is Amber Valley Borough Council, and we strongly recommend that all interested parties make their own enquiries over potential uses.
Covenants/Easements:
i) The purchaser(s) will have a right-of-way over the existing service road, highlighted in yellow on the plan.
ii) The purchaser(s) to provide a contribution to cost of the future maintenance of the access road and car park.
iii) Restrictive covenant to not use the premises for religious worship or for the sale of alcohol, without the approval of the Trustees for Methodist Church Purposes (TMCP).
Please be advised that the auctioneers have not personally inspected the property. Prospective buyers are advised to make a viewing enquiry and any other necessary independent enquiries before placing their bid, as this will be binding.
