Land For Sale £750,000
The Property
Aspen Ridge is being offered for sale as a prime development opportunity, extending to around 1.48 acres in all in a hugely desirable Northumberland village location. The site lends itself to a variety of options for a range of potential purchasers.
The site currently features an already generous property which has full planning permission to be developed and extended still further (Northumberland County Council Planning Reference: T/20050528). The plans are for the existing bungalow to be expanded with a first floor extension over part of the existing structure, a conservatory to the east elevation and alterations to the existing rear sun lounge. Work has commenced on this project and interested parties can continue the work to complete a striking and impressive house with a wonderful south facing aspect.
A separate bungalow to the rear of the plot offers additional accommodation, ideal for visiting guests or to provide a potential income stream from a tenant.
Alternatively, interested parties can explore the opportunity to develop the site for the construction of new properties at the east end of the site, with the option to develop further properties at the west of the site in the future. Proposals for the first phase of development have been put forward as part of the Deliverable and Developable Housing Sites Delivery Consultation.
The site already benefits from mains electricity, water and drainage, providing great convenience for development plans.
