The site


Klp are delighted to offer for sale this well located infill site previously part of the garden of 14 College Road. The land which is rectangular in shape has a gentle rise from the access to the rear boundary and extends to approximately 0.22acre/0.09ha. The land is currently overgrown however the front page photograph of this sales brochure shows it when cleared in November 2017 with the north and east boundaries clearly defined.

We are advised that the five apartments approved under 16/01207/ful comprise the following: Unit 1 - 721sqft, Unit 2 - 721sqft, Unit 3 - 721sqft, Unit 4 - 721 sqft, Unit 5 - 1119 sqft.

Note: Whilst the planning permission granted in 2016 was for a block of 5 apartments, given the site's prestigious location in an area of large individual detached properties in generous mature gardens, klp believe that the site also lends itself to an alternative use, perhaps as a single self build plot, or maybe a pair of semi detached dwellings, for example. With this in mind our clients would consider subject to planning offers.
