Highfield Farm, Aston Juxta Mondrum, CW5 6DU
DESCRIPTION
Highfield Farm. Aston Juxtra Mondrum is an exceptionally rare buying
opportunity that has been deliberately priced at a competitive level to
attract market attention. The property is a striking individual detached
residence believed to date originally from the late 1800s and which has
subsequently extended over time. As presently configured whilst one
overall house, it is split into three different sections described in these
particulars as Highfields House, Squirrels Wood and The Paddocks.
The front section referred to in these particulars as Highfields House
offers really impressive accommodation. The entrance hall has a
beautiful tessellated floor and original staircase with spindle balustrade
rising to the first floor. The rooms in this section of the house are all
large, with the ground floor providing a substantial breakfast kitchen, a
conservatory and drawing room. At first floor level there is a large
master bedroom with ensuite shower room and two further bedrooms
and a family bathroom. Upon an internal inspection it will become clear
that the property is in need of significant modernisation and
improvement. Squirrels Wood is the middle section of the house and
has at ground floor level a living room, snug, conservatory and
breakfast kitchen. At first floor level there are two further bedrooms
and a family bathroom in addition to a store area The Paddocks is the
section to the rear and this has at ground floor level a
conservatory/rear porch, family room and a kitchen. On the first floor
there is a further bedroom with ensuite bathroom.
There are numerous potential options for the property. One is for a
private individual to restore the property as a conventional family
home perhaps with ancillary space within it. A second option is for a
speculator or developer to convert the present property into
apartments or two or three residences, subject to the necessary
planning permissions being granted. Due to the sheer amount of space
it is envisaged that other potential interested parties will have identified
a range of potential uses.
The property has the benefit of a long driveway approach that is within
its ownership and grants access to the other properties around. The
subject property itself has a front parking/driveway area, a section of
the yard to the rear and the garden and small paddock to the side.
Outstanding rural views can be enjoyed particularly from the front
facing rooms of the house.

RESERVE PRICE
The seller's minimum acceptable price at auction and the figure below
which the auctioneer cannot sell. The reserve price is not disclosed
and remains confidential between the seller and the auctioneer. Both
the guide price and the reserve price can be subject to change up to
and including the day of the auction.
GUIDE PRICE
An indication of the seller's current minimum acceptable price at
auction. The guide price or range of guide prices is given to assist
consumers in deciding whether or not to pursue a purchase. It is usual,
but not always the case, that a provisional reserve range is agreed
between the seller and the auctioneer at the start of marketing. As the
reserve is not fixed at this stage and can be adjusted by the seller at any
time up to the day of the auction in the light of interest shown during
the marketing period, a guide price is issued. This guide price can be
shown in the form of a minimum and maximum price range within
which an acceptable sale price (reserve) would fall, or as a single price
figure within 10% of which the minimum acceptable price (reserve)
would fall. A guide price is different to a reserve price (see separate
definition). Both the guide price and the reserve price can be subject
to change up to and including the day of the auction.
