Description

A rare opportunity to acquire a substantial Residential Development Site extending to approximately 0.75 acres, situated off Birchwood Avenue on the western side of Lincoln.

Full planning permission has been granted for the demolition of the existing bungalow and the erection of three detached single storey dwellings with associated access, parking and landscaping, under City of Lincoln Council planning reference 2025/0732/FUL.

The approved scheme provides three detached three-bedroom bungalows, each occupying its own individual plot and benefiting from a single garage. The proposed accommodation includes open-plan kitchen, living and dining space, three bedrooms, en-suite to the principal bedroom and a separate shower room.

The site is currently occupied by a substantial detached bungalow extending to approximately 169 sq m. Although the approved scheme provides for its demolition, the size of the existing property and overall plot may provide an alternative opportunity for a purchaser wishing to explore a different development approach or amendment to the approved scheme, subject to the necessary planning permissions and consents.

The site occupies a convenient position just off Birchwood Avenue, providing good access into Lincoln city centre, the A46 bypass and other parts of the city. Hartsholme Country Park is also close by, together with a wide range of local amenities.

With a substantial plot of approximately 0.75 acres and full planning permission in place for three detached bungalows, this represents a rare development opportunity within Lincoln.
