Description

For sale via secure sale online bidding - terms and conditions apply.

An exciting opportunity to acquire a parcel of land formerly used as a council-owned car park, now privately owned and located within a well-established residential estate.

This plot offers significant potential for residential development, subject to obtaining the necessary planning consents.

The site is positioned within a quiet, predominantly residential area, benefiting from close proximity to local amenities, schools, and transport links.

Its previous use as a car park suggests level ground and good accessibility, making it an ideal candidate for redevelopment.

Early enquiries indicate strong potential for planning permission to build residential dwellings, which would align with the surrounding neighbourhood and ongoing regeneration in the area.
This is a rare chance to secure a site with genuine development prospects in a sought-after location.

A pre-app was submitted for a terrace of 7 - 10 units comprising 7 no. family dwellings (3/4 beds) or 5 no. family dwellings and 4 or 5 smaller units of 1/2 beds. The Local Planning Authority concluded:

''Officers would expect the development to be substantially reduced in scale. Entirely without prejudice and for yourself as Applicant to evidence, it may be possible that a scheme of no more than 4no semi-detached two-storey dwellings may be more appropriate.''

Please note we have not inspected this site.

The advertised price is commonly referred to as a Starting Bid or Guide Price and is accompanied by a Reserve Price. The Reserve Price is confidential to the seller and The Auctioneer and will typically be within a range above or below 10% of the Guide Price or Starting Bid. These prices are subject to change.

Auctioneers Additional Comments

In order to secure the property and ensure commitment from the seller, upon exchange of contracts the successful bidder will be expected to pay a non-refundable deposit equivalent to 5% of the purchase price. The deposit will form part of the purchase price. A non-refundable reservation fee of up to 6% inc VAT (subject to a minimum fee which could be up to 7,200 inc VAT) is also payable upon agreement of sale.
