Description
An excellent opportunity has arisen for developers or self-builders to acquire a building plot of approximately 500 square metres (around 5,400 square feet), situated to the immediate north-east of the former Elwes Arms pub (now The Kensington) on Oakdale Road.
This site has been granted planning permission by Gedling Borough Council (Planning Reference: 2022/0832) for the erection of two detached residential dwellings. The proposed layouts would include four bedrooms, a contemporary open-plan dining kitchen and two parking spaces per property on the new frontage created on Kensington Gardens.
The location is highly convenient, with both Carlton and Bakersfield’s wide range of amenities within easy reach, including shops, schools, leisure facilities and healthcare services. Nottingham City Centre is only a short commute away, providing excellent transport links and further amenities for future residents.
The combination of an established residential setting, attractive former planning consents and close proximity to key local destinations creates a compelling proposition for those looking to create quality family homes. Early viewing and enquiries are strongly recommended to fully appreciate the scope and potential of this site.
IMPORTANT NOTE: The purchase price shown would be subject to additional VAT rates, which may be reclaimable subject to the purchaser’s VAT registration status.
