A 0.04-acre parcel of garden land with existing hardstanding and garage structures in situ, benefiting from an independent electricity supply and situated to the rear of Medomsley Road, Consett. Offered with no planning permission, this versatile plot is available with offers invited.

A rare opportunity to acquire a small parcel of garden land extending to approximately 0.04 acres, occupying a discreet position to the rear of Medomsley Road and accessed via Avondale Road. Identified via What3Words ///common.submit.budget, the site sits behind residential properties 186-189 Medomsley Road and is conveniently located for Consett town centre and its surrounding amenities.

The land is generally level and laid to lawn, with two areas of hardstanding where detached garage structures are currently sited. Boundaries are enclosed, and the plot benefits from an independent electricity supply, adding a useful existing service provision to the site.

Access is gained directly from the road, providing straightforward entry. The land is understood to be freehold and is offered with no known covenants or overage restrictions.

The site is currently used for garden purposes and garage storage. While no planning permission is in place, interested parties are advised to make their own enquiries regarding any future potential uses.

Offers are invited; this is an increasingly rare chance to acquire a manageable parcel of land in a well-established residential setting.
