Description
Opportunity to acquire a garden plot of approximately 150 sq m in an established residential setting in Kenilworth, currently forming part of the side garden of 6 Hawkesworth Drive.
The plot offers the potential to create an individual detached home, with an indicative concept prepared to illustrate how a contemporary dwelling of approximately 70 sq m could potentially be accommodated within the site.
Formal pre-application advice has been obtained from Warwick District Council under reference PRE/26/0136, exploring the principle of creating a separate residential dwelling on the land.
Fronting Hawkesworth Drive, the indicative scheme proposes independent vehicular access directly from the road. Mains services are understood to be available within the immediate vicinity, although purchasers should satisfy themselves as to connection arrangements, capacity and associated costs.
The concept has been prepared to demonstrate how a compact contemporary home could sit within the plot while retaining appropriate outside space. The accompanying plans help illustrate the potential of the site and the type of property that could be created, subject to obtaining the necessary planning consent.
Warwick District Council’s pre-application response identifies a number of matters that would need to be addressed through any future planning application, including the detailed design and siting of the dwelling, the relationship with mature trees and the impact upon the existing property.
The opportunity is likely to appeal to self-build purchasers, architects and smaller developers looking to create an individual home in an established and highly regarded part of Kenilworth.
Location
Old Town Kenilworth, Abbey Fields, Kenilworth Castle and the town centre are all within easy reach. Kenilworth railway station provides services towards Coventry and Leamington Spa, while Warwick, Royal Leamington Spa, Coventry, Birmingham Airport and the wider motorway network are readily accessible.
