Description

SUMMARY Nestled within a picturesque boundary-outline plot, this unique development opportunity offers approved planning permission for the construction of a charming two-storey cottage-style dwelling with an adjoining single-storey garage. The approved design boasts an internal floor space of 200.78 sqm, carefully planned to blend traditional aesthetics with modern functionality, making it ideal for a range of prospective buyers.

The proposed dwelling is designed with both spaciousness and practicality in mind. The ground floor features an inviting entrance hall leading to a generously sized family room, living room, and dining area, each thoughtfully positioned to maximise natural light and optimise flow, making them perfect for entertaining and everyday living. A separate utility room and store add further convenience, ensuring the home meets the demands of modern lifestyles. Upstairs, the first floor accommodates well-proportioned bedrooms, providing a comfortable retreat that enhances the property's overall cottage-style charm. The roof structure has been carefully designed to maintain architectural character while incorporating energy-efficient features.

The development has received conditional approval under the planning application granted on 21 October 2022. The approved design ensures the finished property harmonises beautifully with its surroundings, while the plot's positioning enhances privacy and provides ample outdoor space, offering potential for landscaped gardens, outdoor entertainment areas, or additional utility space. The land registry plan boundary is outlined in red, and interested parties should refer to this for an accurate representation of the land for sale. The plot benefits from a right of way, with or without vehicles, over the roadway tinted brown, which forms part of the planning design. The 1008 m² figure noted in the planning documents refers to the total planning design area, which includes the roadway. This should not be confused with the actual land for sale.

This is a rare opportunity to develop a bespoke home in a desirable location, with planning permission and initial groundwork plans already in place. Whether for personal use or as an investment, this site presents an excellent canvas for creating a stunning residential property. For more details on the plans or to arrange a viewing of the plot, please get in touch.
