A rare freehold development opportunity in Middlewood, five miles from Hay-on-Wye, this site includes a modern portal-frame barn with Class Q consent to convert into a residential dwelling (Herefordshire County Council 223609). The location offers attractive Wye Valley and Merbach Hill views and sits within a quiet hamlet in the Golden Valley — appealing for buyers seeking a rural project close to established market-town amenities.
The site benefits from nearby mains electricity, water and telephone connections; sewerage is to be provided by a package treatment plant. Planning permission under Class Q simplifies conversion to a home, but the barn will require full adaptation works to create a dwelling, including internal fit-out, services connection details and potential reserved matters to be addressed.
Buyers should note an overage agreement with Herefordshire Council, with payment due prior to commencement of works; the vendor is prepared to contribute. There is no mains gas and some access points may differ from those shown on plans. Prospective purchasers must satisfy themselves about services availability, access arrangements and any further planning conditions before exchange.
This site will suit developers, portfolio investors or an owner-builder looking for countryside potential close to Hay-on-Wye’s amenities and excellent local schools. Fast broadband and very low local crime add to the practical appeal, while the remote setting provides privacy and strong rural character.
