Property description
A substantial building set in circa 0.8 acres having recently lapsed planning for 3 detached dwellings.
For sale by Public Auction and via Livestream on Thursday 16 May 2024 at 2.00pm at The Guildhall, Axminster, EX13 5NX
The Property
As it stands today the property is a rare find indeed but it also has a very interesting residential development angle. Taking the existing use first, there is an enormous building at its core combining the front yard, five stables and a large open span workshop/storage space accessed from both the front and rear along with a fenced arena, the whole extending to c. 0.8 of an acre.
The residential development ‘twist’ is that planning consent was granted in 2020 under ref 20/01569/out for the erection of three dwellings but it went on to lapse. In the meantime, the River Axe Phosphates and Nitrates issue has come to the fore as regards residential planning to the extent that an approved drainage system would need to form part of a new application or one could wait for there to be a Local Planning Authority drainage solution available. So, there is residential development potential subject to the usual consents but there will currently be particular scrutiny as to the drainage solution, whether a planning application was for one or two dwellings as opposed to the original three.
