Description

John Francis is pleased to offer for sale this freehold building plot which is situated within the popular village of Hendy.
The freehold building plot is one not to be missed and benefits from outline planning permission for the erection of a dwelling, which was granted by Carmarthenshire County Council on the 8th June 2023.
The plot has approximate measurements of 160' x 43' and we are advised that mains services are nearby.

Please note. An Affordable Housing contribution will be required in line with Policy AH1 of the Carmarthenshire Local Development Plan.
This property is offered through Modern Method of Sale. Should you view, offer or bid your data will be shared with the Auctioneer, iamsold Limited. This method requires both parties to complete the transaction within 56 days, allowing buyers to proceed with mortgage finance (subject to lending criteria, affordability and survey). The buyer is required to sign a reservation agreement and make payment of a non-refundable Reservation Fee of 4.5% of the purchase price including VAT, subject to a minimum of £6,600.00 including VAT. This fee is paid in addition to purchase price and will be considered as part of the chargeable consideration for the property in the calculation for stamp duty liability. Buyers will be required to complete an identification process with iamsold and provide proof of how the purchase would be funded.
The property has a Buyer Information Pack containing documents about the property. The documents may not tell you everything you need to know, so you must complete your own due diligence before bidding. A sample of the Reservation Agreement and terms and conditions are contained within this pack.
The buyer will also make payment of £300 inc. VAT towards the preparation cost of the pack. The estate agent and auctioneer may recommend the services of other providers to you, in which they will be paid for the referral. These services are optional, and you will be advised of any payment, in writing before any services are accepted. Listing is subject to a start price and undisclosed reserve price that can change.
