Description

This attractive freehold development opportunity presents strong potential for investors and developers seeking a residential scheme in the established and highly sought-after town of Rayleigh.

Planning permission has been granted for the development of two well-proportioned detached bungalows, each thoughtfully designed to provide modern, energy-efficient accommodation arranged entirely over a single storey. Each proposed dwelling extends to approximately 80 sq m, offering practical and well-planned layouts particularly suited to downsizers, retirees and purchasers seeking comfortable single-storey living.

The proposed bungalows provide an opportunity to deliver high-quality new homes within an established residential setting, with the scheme benefiting from its proximity to Rayleigh town centre and a range of local amenities.

The site also offers the potential for future development phases, providing an additional opportunity to enhance the overall investment proposition. The second phase is currently progressing through the planning process, with further details available upon request.

This phased approach may provide an investor or developer with the opportunity to develop the consented scheme initially, while retaining the potential to pursue further development on the wider site, subject to the necessary planning consents.

LOCATION

The site is situated within a peaceful and established residential area of Rayleigh, while remaining conveniently close to the town centre. Rayleigh High Street is within easy reach and offers an excellent selection of shops, cafés, restaurants, bars and everyday amenities.

For commuters, Rayleigh railway station provides regular direct services towards London Liverpool Street, making the area particularly attractive to those requiring access to London and the wider rail network.

GDV : Details available upon request.
