Hollis Morgan - A Freehold DETACHED FORMER CARE HOME ( 3821 Sq Ft ) occupying a 1.415 Acre Plot | DERELICT / DEVELOPMENT OPPORTUNITY
Alexandra Lodge, Old Road, Tiverton, Devon, EX16 4HQ
A Freehold Grade II Listed detached former care home / social centre occupying a site extending to 0.573 ha ( 1.415 acres ).
We are informed the original 18th Century building has accommodation ( 3821 Sq Ft ) arranged over 3 floors with a later 1960’s extension at the rear believed to comprise rendered block / brick construction and we understand a former lodge building to the rear of the original building has been demolished.
The Property sits on a site which is broadly square in shape and slopes gently down towards the north. It is bounded by a range of fences and brick walls with a range of mature and younger trees particularly along the west and southern boundaries. The site is tiered in parts and much of it comprises former lawns (now with a rougher finish/appearance). The principal access is on the western boundary over an adjacent residential development ( The Glades ) linking with the public highway. There are also other entrance points on Old Road and Lodge Road on the eastern boundary.
Structural condition - We have not been able to inspect the building internally and buyers must rely on their own investigations.
We are informed by our clients that the condition of Alexandra Lodge deteriorated from around 2018 to 2020 as a result of theft of lead from the roof. The removal of the lead was not discovered until some months after the event and in the meantime the roof timbers became severely compromised by ingress of water. The overall structure became unstable and external structural scaffold was required to avoid collapse and remains in situ.
We understand the site was leased to Devon County Council Social Services until 31st March 2012 for use initially as a day centre and then latterly for administration facilities
Sold with vacant possession.
