heb, acting on behalf of private clients, have been instructed to find a buyer for the former Hermitage Mill site at Hermitage Lane, Mansfield.
The historic Grade II Listed Hermitage Mill building was tragically destroyed by fire last year, at which time a consent had been granted for its conversion and refurbishment into a 70 bed care home along with 31 new homes within the curtilage.
Following the near total destruction of the former water mill building, Historic England have removed the site’s Listed status and it is now available to purchase in its entirety and suitable for a wide variety of development styles.
The whole site extends to almost 5 acres including a section of the River Maun with weir and a large fishing lake / nature reserve to the rear.
Robert Maxey of sole selling agents heb Chartered Surveyors said: “The phrase ‘unique opportunity’ is perhaps over-used in the property market, however in this instance it is absolutely applicable.
“The site offers potential for a purchaser to design and construct a unique and bespoke lake-side development. Although located within the built-up Mansfield area, the large site is surrounded by tall mature trees which in conjunction with the lake nature reserve to the rear, provides a very secluded and peaceful setting.
“We believe it remains ideally suited to bespoke residential development, possibly with a new care facility replacing the previously consented scheme. We are really excited to play a part in a regeneration of this super opportunity, which has been vacant for too long and has potential to become a real Mansfield landmark once again.”
