Description

A superb parcel of land with the benefit of detailed planning consent granted for the erection of two good sized 3 bedroomed dwellings set within an excellent private plot of 0.57 Acres [0.23 Hectares].

Planning consent was granted by Lancaster City Council under planning application 24/01398/FUL for the demolition of agricultural buildings and the erection of two dwellings dated 9th May 2025. The full suite of planning documents can be found on the Lancaster City Council Planning Portal.

The proposed plans are identified as a traditional cottage design incorporating random stone slate pitched roof, heritage green window fenestrations and simple dormers. The design of the dwellings enhances the visual appearance of the site. The two modern energy efficient homes will be elevated and raised to enjoy an unrestricted outlook over the surrounding countryside.

Both plots are identical having covered steps leading to a covered welcoming porch, into reception hallway with stairs directly off, lounge, study, utility, large open plan kitchen family dining and living area with feature bi-folding doors. To the first floor Master bedroom with en-suite and walk in wardrobe and dressing area, two further good sized double bedrooms and family bathroom.

From measurement on the plans, each dwelling will provide for approximately 161 sq m [1,730 sq ft].

The plot extends to 0.57 Acres and allows for ample gardens, driveway and parking. The proposed site layout is a well-thought development with each plot having high degrees of privacy with established hedges to be planted and some retained to be screened from other properties and the A588.

Additional hedge planting around the plot boundaries will enhance the ecological value and appearance of the development.

AML checks : Buyers who have had an offer accepted in principle, will need to complete an Anti-Money Laundering (AML) and Identity Verification check, this is a legal requirement. We use a specialist third party to conduct these checks. Individuals purchasing a property have checks conducted directly by Coadjute and a non-refundable fee of £45.00 plus VAT per purchaser will be payable. This fee cannot be refunded even if the property purchase does not go ahead. We will be notified once the checks have been completed, if successful the Memorandum of Sale will then be sent to solicitors.
