Description
A wonderful opportunity to purchase a former Village Hall, located on the outskirts of the popular west Suffolk village of Kentford.
The property benefits from a site measuring circa 0.3acres, within which the current village hall sits close to the northern boundary in a central position.
The property was originally constructed as a village school and is of brick construction with a render finish, and was extended to the rear in the middle of the 20th century. The site has not been actively used for approx. 10 years.
The site is likely to appeal to owner/occupiers and developers alike.
