Former Chatsworth Estate barn in White Peak set for auction with planning consent

The barn will feature, along with over 220 other lots, in the next live-streamed auction to be held by SDL Property Auctions, part of Eddisons, on 29 May.

Andrew Parker, partner and auctioneer at SDL Property Auctions, said: “This is a great opportunity to create a three-bedroom family home with landscaped gardens in one of the most spectacular areas of the Peak District and we expect to see some competitive bidding on the day of the auction, given the levels of interest we have already had in the property.”

He added: “As well as the charm of the barn itself, the location is also perfect. Set in the gorgeous White Peak area, Wetton has numerous well-loved beauty spots on its doorstep, including the Manifold Valley trail, Wolfscote Dale and Dovedale.

“The barn is set on the outskirts of Wetton village, surrounded by peaceful countryside but with facilities such as shops and schools within easy reach and with larger towns like Leek and Ashbourne just 10 miles away.”

The planning regulations state that the property cannot be used as a holiday let. More information on the property is available at the SDL Property Auctions website at www.sdlauctions.co.uk, where interested parties can also register to bid in the live streamed auction online, on the phone or by proxy.
