Site - Exceptional Residential Development Opportunity
An outstanding opportunity to acquire a prime residential development site with planning permission granted for 4 contemporary, architect-designed detached homes, each offering 4 bedrooms, a private garage, driveway & generous gardens.
CGI imagery is available to illustrate the approved designs & showcase the high-quality appearance of the proposed development.
The site also benefits from an extant planning permission for 6 3-bedroom semi-detached houses. The seller advises that this previous consent remains extant & importantly, does not require payment of the Community Infrastructure Levy (CIL), presenting potential cost savings for developers.
Occupying an attractive position within a popular & well-established residential area, the site enjoys a pleasant setting bordered by woodland to 1 side & open fields to the other, creating an appealing environment for future homeowners.
The seller further advises that all main services have been installed within the site, adopted drainage runs through the development & all trees have been removed. The site is not subject to any Tree Preservation Orders (TPOs).
Planning permission was granted on appeal on 9 January 2025 under Appeal Reference APP/N1160/W/23/3335046, relating to Plymouth City Council Planning Application 22/00651/FUL. Full planning documentation is available to view via the Plymouth City Council Planning Portal.
