Description

BID DATE 23rd MARCH

A highly prominent greenfield development site of up to 2.8ha (6.92 acres) which has been scored as being suitable for development in the latest Call for Sites process by Maldon District Council.

The property is located to the North West of Maldon inside the A414 and is accessed via London road.

According to the latest Experian data, within a 10 minute drive time of the site there are:
• 37,259 residents
• 15,806 housholds

Viewings
The site can be viewed from various points along the site boundary. Full site inspections can be arranged in advanced.

Specifications
The site is offered as seen and prospective buyers are advised to make their own enquiries with the relevant service providers.

Planning
Maldon District Council are in the process of undertaking their Local Development Plan Review 2021+.

In the 2012 SHLAA and the 2015 SHLAA the property was assessed as suitable, available and deliverable with ‘no obvious constraints to development’ and, at that time, identified as having capacity for 103 dwellings.

A further submission was made in mid-2021 and the property was put forward for a residential
development of up to 37 dwellings. The extent of development proposed in the submission has been informed following applications made in 2014 for 68 dwellings - OUT/MAL/14/00432) and 2015 for 66 dwellings - FUL/MAL/15/00183).

As part of the previous applications the property was the subject of reports and assessment. In highway terms the property has an access on to London Road which has been found acceptable and in accordance with highway standards.

The Flood Risk Assessment, Ecology Report, Air Quality Assessment, tree survey, landscape impact and noise survey from the previous applications can
all be reviewed on the Council website . The only technical constraint to be identified and unresolved at that time was the exposure to noise of some of the planned new properties.

The Council published their assessment of the 2021 Call for Sites in January 2022 and gave the property the reference MAL/HY10. Within this assessment
the property was again scored as being suitable for development.
