Description
Of interest to investors, developers or those wishing to create a bespoke residence, the building plot at Lickbarrow Road represents a rare opportunity to construct a single detached property to their own taste in this stunning position providing wonderful views over to Lake Windermere and to the central Lakeland Fells.
Occupying an elevated position on a small development of just five plots on Lickbarrow Road, permission has been granted offering scope to construct a generous four bedroom contemporary family home over two floors with open plan kitchen diner opening onto a terrace, separate sitting room, utility room, four double bedrooms and two bathrooms with plenty of gardens, grounds and parking. The main access road which is to be private for all residents will be constructed but not finished completely until the houses are built and the property will also have another access point at the rear, private to the owners of this plot. The surface and foul drainage have both been installed in conjunction with plots 1&2 to as far as the upper level plot 3.
Situated in a highly sought after location, it is placed well to local amenities including primary and secondary schools, shops, cafes and restaurants, together with the wide range of activities offered on Lake Windermere, the many excellent local walks and the public transport services.
Interested parties should take note of the occupancy restrictions attached and ensure that they qualify for the intended occupant of the property. For further information, all details are available online at the Lake District National Park Planning Portal with the reference 7/2022/5496 or from the Windermere Office. Development was confirmed to be started by the Lake District National Park by an approval of certificate of lawful proposed use or development, meaning the planning permission remains valid.
SERVICES
It is understood that the mains services are available locally to the site. Electricity, gas, water and foul drainage are not yet connected. Prospective purchasers will need to satisfy themselves as to the suitability of the services available.
IDENTIFICATION CHECKS
Should a purchaser(s) have an offer accepted on a property marketed by THW Estate Agents they will need to undertake an identification check. This is done to meet our obligation under Anti Money Laundering Regulations (AML) and is a legal requirement. We use a specialist third party service to verify your identity. The cost of these checks is £43.20 inc. VAT per buyer, which is paid in advance, when an offer is agreed and prior to a sales memorandum being issued. This charge is non-refundable.
