Would it be possible to sell an indoor school?

[Orangehorse]

People with no equine interest have moved to a property with an indoor school. To them it is a big barn with no particular use.
I wondered how feasible it would be to advertise it for sale. Would anyone be interested, or is it a case that it is easier to put up a new building then to take down an old one and re-erect.

You can sell buildings and buyer takes away if they are steel portal buildings, But they are easy to convert to a garage, workshop, store etc. so makes sense to keep and use for alternative uses

I've seen them for sale (albeit taken down and stored in a pile somewhere) in the back of H&H before now and in the Agricultural section of the local paper.

People sell used, sheds, stables; barns and ive heard of a few people buying/selling old indoor sufaces so why not?

They get sold all the time in areas of the world where they are more common. The trick is finding a good company to do the work because it can be tricky to get all the bits to line up again and some of the ones I've seen moved were never weather tight again.

If they have plans for the building, they could just see the surface.

Or its very doable for a building to be taken down in pieced and reassembled elsewhere.

What a waste of an indoor school and what sounds like a good place in general! Right now I think I would kill for a property with one!
