STANFORDS Stanfords have great pleasure in offering to the market the very rare opportunity to purchase a World War 2 decoy bunker with permission to turn it into a self-contained glamping unit. Permission was granted by Tendring District Council in December 2017 and once the bunker is converted it will allow the occupier to benefit from a unique hideout with breath-taking vistas over farmland to the River Stour and beyond. We understand that the WW2 bunker was constructed in 1940 to 1941 when approximately 700 decoy bunkers were designed as a special decoy target for the German bombers. This one was located specifically to protect the local mine site at Wrabness. The bunker, as we understand, is only one of two remaining bunkers of its type on the East Coast and will once converted, blend old with new. It is a unique hideout with an epic country backdrop and would benefit from its own bedroom, ensuite with shower and a kitchenette with a cosy living area with views to die for. The approximate floor space will total 324 sqft. The bunker is located at the end of a private driveway near Spinnels Farm just off the B1352. The bunker has carefully been designed to blend in with its natural setting with portal windows to gaze over the surrounding countryside up at the skyline. Planning permission was granted on the Guide Price of 12th December 2017 under Further information is available on the website www.historicengland.org.uk no. 17/00536/FUL. Please see Tendring District Council website for further information. £95,000 ALL ENQUIRIES TO STANFORDS, WYNCOLLS ROAD, COLCHESTER CO4 9HU EMAIL INFO@STANFORDS-COLCHESTER.CO.UK TELEPHONE 01206 842156
