The site is currently occupied by seven lock up garages. This is a superb location close to all local facilities, in which to build a substantial family home. The site comprises approximately 0.13 acres and the proposed home has a proposed gross internal floor area of 180 sq m providing spacious accommodation including five bedrooms and four bathrooms over three floors.
There is sure to be substantial interest in this very rare and appealing opportunity.
Accommodation
The approved plans show proposed accommodation as follows:
Ground Floor: Entrance lobby, hall with stairs up and cloakroom/wc off, lounge with bay window and large kitchen/living/dining room across the full width at the back.
First Floor: Master bedroom with dressing room and ensuite, two further bedrooms and family bathroom.

These are proposed figures and should be considered approximate. Prospective buyers should inspect all drawings and satisfy themselves as to the proposed accommodation and floor areas.
Site
The site measures in total around 0.13 acres according to Landinsight mapping. We have not measured physically and buyers must satisfy themselves with regard to this. Vehicular access is from Earls Drive and we believe that some of the owners on Glenbrooke Terrace have right of way over this lane. This lane appears to be included in the site measurement above. Again, buyers must satisfy themselves as to the legal position with regard to this shared access.
The site is currently occupied by seven lock up garages each on a licence. We are advised that the total annual rental is £9,240pa and that vacant possession can be obtained by giving one months notice. If required, the vendor will serve such notice but alternatively, the garages could provide some income to the purchaser, before development commences.

All of the relevant details are available upon the Planning Portal. There are a number of conditions, one of which is that development must commence within three years of the date of permission being granted.
Services
As the site is located in an urban location we would expect main services to be available but we have made no enquiries with relevant bodies and prospective buyers must make there own enquiries.
VAT
We are advised that VAT will not be payable on the purchase price.
Tenure
We are advised that the site will be sold upon a Freehold basis and we have in our possession Land Registry documention showing the current tenure as Freehold.
