An exciting brownfield development opportunity in the heart of Hertford town centre, benefiting from full planning permission for an attractive three-storey mixed-use scheme.
Planning Permission:
Full planning permission has been granted for the demolition of the existing buildings and erection of a mixed-use development comprising a ground-floor Class E retail/commercial unit and nine residential apartments (Use Class C3), together with alterations to access, car parking, waste and recycling storage, cycle storage, landscaping and associated works.
Number of Units: 9 x two-bedroom apartments plus 1 Class E commercial unit
Parking: 9 residential parking spaces, including 1 accessible parking bay
Total Site Area: Approximately 900 sqm / 0.22 acres
The Current Site:
The site currently comprises a collection of adjoining commercial buildings together with areas of hardstanding and existing parking.
The existing buildings were previously used for car tyre sales and servicing.
Location:
Fore Street occupies a prominent position in the heart of Hertford Town Centre, within the designated Primary Shopping Area and Hertford Conservation Area. The location provides immediate access to the town's established shops, restaurants, cafés and everyday amenities.
Train Station: Hertford East railway station is approximately a five-minute walk from the site. Hertford North is also readily accessible, approximately an eight-minute bus journey from the site.
Bus & Road: The property is positioned close to Gascoyne Way/A414, providing convenient road connections to the surrounding Hertfordshire road network.
Shopping: The site sits directly within Hertford's established town centre, with a broad range of independent and national retailers nearby. M&S Foodhall immediately adjoins the site, providing a particularly strong commercial and residential town-centre setting.
Eating & Drinking: Hertford provides a wide selection of restaurants, cafés, pubs and bars throughout Fore Street and the surrounding town centre, all readily accessible on foot from the development.
