Land for sale in Orkney Drive, Tamworth B77

The site is shown outlined in red on the plan following hereto and has a total area of 1.17 acres (0.47 hectares) or thereabouts.

The site has two vehicular access points from Orkney Drive a relatively modern but established residential area within the heart of Wilnecote Village on the south eastern outskirts of the Borough of Tamworth.

This is a position which offers easy vehicular access to Tamworth town centre and to the nearby A5 at its intersection with the M42 and Junction 10 which is within five minutes drive.

This is a site which is considered by the vendors to have considerable potential for additional residential development as it forms part of an established and predominantly residential area. This may be for the whole site or indeed by retaining the existing residence thereon. Both are practically possible in our view.

The site is zoned by hm Government at Flood Zone 3. This in itself does not prohibit residential development but does mean that a risk assessment plan must be prepared for consideration in any planning application.

The existing property known as Field Lodge is a detached modern bungalow dating from 1981 and of conventional construction and generally well maintained and is a very large property enclosing a total gross internal area in the order of 2,360 sq.ft. (219.34 sq.m.) or thereabouts.

The property has gas fired central heating and fully double glazed UPVC window and door inserts and is currently providing a large entrance porch, dining hall, inner hall, fitted bathroom, three bedrooms (one ensuite), two living rooms, fitted kitchen, laundry room with WC/wash off and a walk-in pantry.

To the exterior there is a substantial double garage at the side of the property and large enclosed gardens to both the front and rear. The gardens have a gated access leading from Orkney Drive.

To the eastern side of the property is a large paddock with a separate gated driveway again leading from Orkney Drive and running along the northern boundary of the gardens to Field Lodge.

The property has all mains services connected but does not have a current Energy Performance Certificate.
