Exciting Town Centre Development Opportunity in Chard

September 2026

Two development opportunities in the heart of Chard are being offered by development land and planning specialists Greenslade Taylor Hunt. 

The site which is available either as a whole or in two separate lots encompasses a substantial former mill building, a former office building and associated hardstanding areas, which extend to approximately 0.37-hectares (0.91-acres). 

This centrally located plot presents an attractive prospect for developers, investors and renovators seeking a well-positioned project within the town centre 

Lot 1 comprises a six-storey, Grade II Listed former mill building together with outbuildings and adjoining hardstanding land. This represents a significant renovation and conversion opportunity with potential for a range of development schemes, subject to obtaining the necessary planning consents.

Lot 2 comprises a former office building with associated hardstanding land which benefits from strong road frontage. The site offers redevelopment potential for a variety of future uses. There is also potential for the existing building to be demolished to facilitate a new development scheme, subject to the necessary consents being secured.

The freehold is being offered for sale by private treaty with vacant possession on completion. The site is on the market as a whole or in two separate lots, with offers invited on an unconditional basis, providing plenty of potential for prospective purchasers to consider a comprehensive redevelopment opportunity.

Lot 1 (Former Mill Building and Development Land) offers in the region of £200,000

Lot 2 (Former Office Building and Development Land) offers in the region of £100,000

Whole Site offers in the region of £300,000
