Key Features

  • Exciting Development Opportunity
  • Previously Approved Planning Permission (REF:3840/20)
  • Freehold For Sale
  • Well Established Residential Location
  • Ideally Located For Central Line

Description

An exciting development opportunity to acquire the freehold of a block comprising four self contained apartments, together with previously approved planning permission for an upward extension providing three additional residential units.

The property is situated in a well established residential area with convenient access to local amenities and strong transport links, including Fairlop Station, offering direct services into Central London.

The planning permission (Planning Ref: 3840/20) permits ‘Upward extension of 2 additional storeys on detached block of flats consisting of 3 new flats with external side staircase leading to 3rd floor.’ The consent was granted on 29/01/2021 and has since lapsed; however, it provides a useful planning history for the site. Any future development would require a new application and approval from the local planning authority.
