Description

Currently undeveloped, this site sits within a pocket of strong residential planning precedent. The immediate locality has seen several large-scale schemes approved historically, suggesting significant development potential. Initial assessments indicate the site could support a scheme of approximately 50 units (STPP)

Planning permission was granted in 2016 under reference 16/00899/FUL for a substantial residential development on a larger, comprehensive site. While the land now being offered forms part of that wider area, the current plot configuration differs, and the historic consent does not directly apply. However, the approval is considered a material consideration, indicating potential for future development subject to securing a new planning consent.

The landowner is open to various structured transactions, including conditional contracts, planning-led arrangements, and overages, with specific deposit terms subject to agreement.

The property is sold subject to an overage provision of £300,000, applicable for a 30-year term, with approximately 18 years remaining.

Buyer’s fee payable: 1.5% + VAT
