This property was acquired consisting of a beautiful half timbered cottage with large gardens to the east and west of the property. We retained the house within its own large plot and secured planning consent to develop the approx. 1.7 acres of remaining gardens around the existing dwelling for 7 substantial detached homes and a pair of semi detached houses. Notably this site was outside the development boundary and we needed to overcome the planning policy and environmental issues, including woodland Tree Preservation Order (TPO) and poorly draining soils With the existing house sold earlier in the process, the site was subsequently sold with planning consent to a house builder, securing a significant financial uplift over the original cost of the property.
