Description
Land Adjoining Tabernacle Chapel, Carway Road, Pontyates, Carmarthenshire, SA15 5UU.
Residential Development Opportunity – Previous Outline Permission for 11 Dwellings
Offers Invited – Unconditional or Subject to Planning
YourLandStore is pleased to bring to the market an attractive residential development opportunity at Land adjoining Tabernacle Chapel, Carway Road, Pontyates, Carmarthenshire, SA15 5UU.
The site has an established residential planning history, including outline planning permission for 11 private dwellings, incorporating an estate road and amended access.
The original outline permission was granted by Carmarthenshire County Council under planning application S/28103, dated 19 July 2019.
The previous permission has now lapsed and the site is therefore being offered as a development opportunity, with purchasers invited to consider either an unconditional acquisition or an acquisition subject to planning (STP).
Previous Planning Permission
The original outline application was for:
“Eleven no. private dwellings including estate road and amended access.”
The permission established the principle of an 11-dwelling residential development on the site and included provision for a new estate road and amended site access.
The Council’s decision noted that, at the time of the application, the site was within the settlement development limits and considered the proposal acceptable in relation to the relevant planning policies.
As an outline permission, matters including layout, appearance and landscaping were reserved for subsequent approval.
Planning History & Development Potential
The site has previously been marketed and generated significant interest from developers, with a formal offer received during the previous marketing campaign.
Although the original permission has now lapsed, the established planning history provides a prospective purchaser with a valuable starting point when considering the site’s future development potential.
An alternative scheme for 18 single-storey retirement dwellings was also previously considered by another developer, although these proposals were never submitted as a planning application.
This demonstrates that alternative development approaches have previously been explored and may provide a useful starting point for a purchaser considering the site’s future potential.
Development Opportunity
The site is being marketed as a single development opportunity, rather than as individual plots.
The vendor is inviting offers on either of the following bases:
Unconditional Purchase
An outright acquisition of the site, with the purchaser taking responsibility for pursuing any future planning permission and delivering the development.
This may appeal to developers looking to acquire the site and take control of the planning and development process immediately.
Subject to Planning
The vendor will also consider offers subject to planning, allowing a purchaser to agree terms for the acquisition while pursuing a new planning permission.
This may provide an opportunity for a purchaser to develop a revised scheme reflecting current planning policy, market conditions and their own development requirements.
The vendor is therefore open to considering proposals from purchasers based upon either route.
Potential Purchasers
The opportunity may be of particular interest to:
Local and regional housebuilders
Residential developers
Retirement living operators
Property investors
Land investors and landbankers
Developers seeking sites with previous residential planning history
