Description

Land South of Tothby Lane comprises approximately 24.5 acres (9.92 hectares) of predominantly level greenfield land situated on the north-western edge of Alford, Lincolnshire. The site adjoins established residential development to the east and south-east and represents a significant residential development opportunity within close proximity to Alford town centre and its range of shops, services, schools and healthcare facilities.

Principal vehicular access is proposed via Dixon Drive and Coles Avenue, with pedestrian and cycle connections via Robinson Avenue. The freehold interest is offered for sale with vacant possession by way of informal tender.

The site is located on the north-western edge of Alford in East Lindsey, Lincolnshire, adjoining established residential development to the east and south-east.

Alford town centre is located nearby and provides a range of shops, services, primary and secondary schools and healthcare facilities. The site benefits from good connectivity to the A1104 and surrounding settlements, together with established pedestrian and cycle connections into the town.
