Land & Former Drill Hall, Rear Of 53 St. Johns Wood Road, Ryde, Isle Of Wight, PO33 1HL
Sold £248,000

This substantial former Army drill hall sits on a plot of 0.22 hectares (0.55 acres) accessed off St Johns Wood Road, a short drive from the centre of Ryde with all of its amenities including ferry and hovercraft connections to the mainland.

It is considered that the existing building may be suitable for other uses including residential conversion with potential for re-development of the remainder of the site. Alternatively, prospective purchasers may wish to consider re-development of the whole of the site with demolition of the existing drill hall, all of which would be subject to all necessary consents being obtainable.

The current owners have undertaken some preliminary work including a proposed scheme and flood mitigation reports which will be within the legal pack available to download from the Clive Emson website.
