For Sale by Informal Tender - Offers to be received by Noon 26th September 2024.

On behalf of Minchinhampton Surgery, Bruton Knowles have been instructed to market For Sale the existing doctors surgery premises. The surgery is no longer considered fit for purpose and is to re-locate to a purpose built medical centre along the Cirencester Road, which is currently under construction. It is envisaged that the building may have scope for alternative uses or for re-development of the site (subject to planning).

The site extends to approximately 0.21 acres and property comprises a single storey flat roofed building constructed in 1971. Internally the building extends to 3,562 sq.ft (331 sqm) and is currently operational as a doctor's surgery. The building benefits from a large number of windows to the external elevations and numerous lightwells to the central rooms. Externally the property benefits from 12 no. car parking spaces for staff and visitors to the rear of the main building. The area to the east of the building is currently overgrown with trees and vegetation having historically been used as a 'break-out area' for staff and patients. Pedestrian and vehicular access to the surgery is provided via School Road to the west of the site which is a no through road. The topography of the site is gently sloping. A mature hedge is located to the southern boundary adjoining the tarmac surfaced car park.

The property benefits from a Ground Floor Area of 3,562 sq.ft (331 sqm) on an IPMS 2 basis. Internal accommodation currently provides a large reception, waiting room, file storage racking, several WCs, offices, GP consulting and treatment rooms. Please see the internal layout floor plan.
The property has been occupied as a GP Surgery since construction and its use is believed to fall within Class E of the Use Classes Order (formerly D1 Non-residential Institution).

A pre-application submission to Stroud District Council was undertaken in June 2024 and three design options were put forward for the sites potential re-development for residential housing. The Local Authority response confirms that "the principle of residential development of this site can be supported". "The demolition of the building is non-contentious" and "the proposal is unlikely to have a severe impact on the highway network given the existing use of the site".

Please see the information pack for a copy of the planning statement, three scheme layouts and Local Authority response. The property may also be suitable for refurbishment and conversion to alternative uses. Purchasers are advised to seek their own planning advice.

Internal access is not currently permitted due to the operational nature of the doctors surgery. As such, interested parties are encouraged to review the pack of photographs and video tour. Interested parties may view externally at their convenience.
