Astbury Lake, Newcastle Road, Congleton, Cheshire, CW12
Description
Outline planning consent for redevelopment of the existing restaurant site for residential purposes, with additional land retained for biodiversity habitat area under planning application number 22/0621C.
A location like no other. The site stands in an elevated position on the fringe of Astbury Mere Country Park and boast prime views over the lake.
Astbury Mere was created within a former sand quarry, which has since been beautifully landscaped with a mature lake and over thirty four acres of open space. The lake itself is a very attractive piece of water set in a slight valley surrounded in part by mature trees. It is a shared amenity with a sailing club and is described as a quiet and picturesque sanctuary close to the busy market town of Congleton and is very popular with dog walkers and ramblers alike.
Astbury is a beautiful and charming village in the heart of Cheshire, surrounded by countryside and boasts one of the few remaining village greens left in country and sits beneath a fourteenth century Gothic style church which shapes the landscape.
This development opportunity lies to the South of Congleton which is within very easy reach of the town centre and is favoured for its excellent commuter links.
Congleton provides excellent access of the North West Motorway networks with nearby junctions at either Sandbach or Holmes Chapel. Trunk roads including the new bypass provide a link between Stoke-On-Trent and Manchester, as does the local railway station which lies on the West Coast Main Line.
