Plot 1, Thorpe Wood, Peterborough, PE3

Key Features

  • Sought after location just off the A47/Nene Parkway Junction
  • Allocated in adopted Local Plan for C2 / B1 uses
  • Adjacent sites are Care Home uses
  • Subject to Planning bids considered

Description

The property comprises an open site currently laid to grassland. The access road to the site off Thorpe Wood has been partly installed. At present the site has no planning consent however it is allocated within the adopted Local Plan (Site reference LP46.5) for development primarily within Class B1 (now Class E), but that in principle the whole of the site could come forward for C2 uses. Plot 3 (to the south of this site) has been developed out as a care home and plot 2 (to the east of this site) is also under offer to a care home developer. It is therefore anticipated that Plot 1 could be developed out for similar or related uses within Class C2 or for uses within Class B1 (now Class E).
