Description

The site occupies a prominent position within Treherbert, situated at the head of the Rhondda Valley in Rhondda Cynon Taf. The property adjoins established residential development and benefits from frontage and access from the A4061 Rhigos Road, which provides direct access to the A465 Heads of the Valleys Road and the wider South Wales region.

Treherbert provides a range of local amenities and public transport connections, whilst nearby settlements including Treorchy, Pentre and Aberdare offer a wider range of retail and leisure facilities. Treherbert Rail Station is a 10 minute walk from the subject site, providing direct access to Cardiff Central, circa 25 miles to the south east.

The property comprises a substantial parcel of previously developed land extending to approximately 4.474 acres (1.81 hectares).

Historically occupied by former educational and healthcare buildings, the site has since been cleared and now consists of vacant land with areas of established vegetation and mature trees. The topography is undulating in nature, with varying site levels across the holding. The site represents a rare residential development opportunity within an established residential location.

The Rhondda Cynon Taf Local Development Plan 2006-2021 allocates the site to provide 50 dwellings under policy NSA 9.15. Interested parties should undertake their own planning investigations and satisfy themselves as to the suitability of their intended development proposals.

Offers are sought on an unconditional basis for the freehold interest.
