Description

The land at Bedlinog is situated on the eastern edge of the village. The site historically benefitted from a now lapsed planning consent dating back to 2013 for circa 50 dwellings (details available in the site information pack). The site is located within the settlement boundary of Bedlinog with direct access into the public highway.

Site Information
Situated on the edge of the attractive and well-connected village of Bedlinog, this site enjoys a pleasant setting with convenient access to local shops, services, and community facilities. The location also benefits from excellent road connections, providing easy access to Merthyr Tydfil and further afield to the city of Newport. Powells have been instructed to invite offers from developers for the site on a conditional ‘Subject to Planning’ basis.

Planning Context & Development Potential 
The site lies within the jurisdiction of Merthyr Tydfil County Borough Council. Historic planning consent for residential development was previously granted under reference P/11/0360, which approved a scheme for approximately 50 dwellings. Although this consent has since lapsed, it provides a clear precedent that the principle of residential development on the site was considered acceptable.
The site is located within the current Local Development Plan (LDP) village boundary for Bedlinog, reinforcing its suitability for future housing. Whilst planning and environmental policies have evolved since the earlier consent, the site continues to present a strong opportunity, subject to a sensitively designed scheme that reflects the local character and setting. Merthyr Tydfil County Borough Council face ongoing challenges in delivering a sufficient supply of housing land, which may further support the site’s potential as a windfall opportunity, particularly for an affordable-led residential scheme. Interested parties are encouraged to undertake their own site inspections and seek professional planning and design advice to confirm the site’s suitability for development under current policy requirements.

Key Information
Services: Interested parties should make and rely upon their own enquiries regarding the availability and cost of connections to mains services and utilities.
Wayleaves, Easements & Rights of Way: The property is offered with all existing wayleaves, easements and all public and private rights of way and other such rights, whether these are specifically referred to in these particulars or not.
VAT: The VAT status of the property is to be confirmed.

Invitation of Offers - Subject to Planning
