RARE RESIDENTIAL RE-DEVELOPMENT OPPORTUNITY WITHIN GREEN BELT KINGSWINFORD Fire damaged former caretakers house on 0.06Ha site - potential for new 3 or 4 bed detached house
Description
A rare opportunity has arisen for the development of a new residential property within Green Belt land.
The site is located adjacent to a residential area on the A4101 Lodge Lane, approximately 2/3 mile to the west of Kingswinford centre and 5 miles from Dudley town centre.
The property currently comprises a fire damaged detached 3 bedroom house extending to approximately 100m2 situated on a level site of approximately 0.06 ha (0.15 acres). The boundary of the site is shown edged red on the site plan attached below.
The site adjoins a residential area to the east and Summerhill School playing fields and tennis courts to the south and west. The property overlooks agricultural land to the north of Lodge Lane.
The property has been badly damaged by fire and would require extensive work to reach a habitable standard.
Once the house is demolished, the site offers the opportunity for the development of a new home in an excellent location.
Available freehold with vacant possession. The property shares a joint access with an electricity sub station and a right of way will be retained over the land to maintain this, this is shown coloured brown on the site plan below.
PLANNING
There is a presumption against inappropriate development in the Dudley Borough’s designated Green Belt, which this property is located in.
One Exception to this is the replacement of a building, provided the new building is in the same use and not materially larger than the one it replaces.
Interested parties should make their own enquiries of the Local Planning Authority and satisfy themselves as to the suitability of the site for any use or development they may propose.
GROUND CONDITIONS
The site may be affected by contaminants and poor ground condition and therefore prospective purchasers must undertake their own site investigations and independently satisfy themselves as to the suitability of the site for any proposed use or future development
MINING
We are not aware of any limestone workings. The Coal Authority records suggest the property is not within the zone of likely physical influences on the surface from past underground workings. Interested parties should however make their own independent enquiries regarding any future use of the property.
SERVICES
All mains services are available to the existing property however prospective purchasers should make their own enquiries to establish the availability and capacity of services for the purposes of re-development.
The cost of any upgrade to connections would be at the purchaser’s expense.
An EPC is available for the property but this was prepared before the fire occurred and is not now relevant.
