Description
A freehold residential development site in a rural setting with permission under General Permitted Development (Class MA) for Change of Use to 10 residential properties (approximately 1,062 sq.m / 11,435 sq.ft GIA).
Site area extending to approximately 1.47 acres
Situation - The site lies to the north of Rugby (5 miles) and the west of Lutterworth (6 miles), approximately 2.5 miles off the A5 Lutterworth/Magna Park junction between the villages of Pailton and Harborough Magna. Junction 1 of the M6 is approximately 6 miles away with the M69 9 miles to the north. Coventry is 12 miles to the west, with Birmingham 35 miles away. Rugby train station provides a direct route to London which at its fastest takes approximately 1 hour.
Description - The site extends to approximately 1.47 acres of level ground and was previously used as the buildings for the NATS office site, but these buildings have been empty for a number of years.
Permission has been obtained to change the use of the buildings and land within their curtilage from office use Class E to 10 no. dwellinghouses Class C3 under Class MA.
Based on the approved drawings there is approximately 1,062 sq.m of gross internal development area (11,435 sq.ft).
Planning - Planning permission was obtained on 8th November 2021 under reference R21/0937 for the Prior Approval Change of Use of Buildings and Land with their Curtilage from Office Use Class E to 10 No. Dwellinghouses Class C3 under Class MA.
Whilst there may be opportunities to amend the planning either by amending the internal design, layout or perhaps even looking to try and obtain permission for replacement dwellings, it should be noted that the site is within the 'greenbelt' and the vendors are looking for an unconditional sale based on the approved permission.
