Land For Sale £275,000
The existing property is a one storey chapel that covers approximately 59 sqm of the site which is currently not used.
Outline Planning permission has been submitted for demolition of existing small chapel, for erection of a modern 2 storey detached house to fit the site, which is presently awaiting approval.
The site faces a main street on its East side, a footpath to the South and West and is bounded by another residential property to the North.
The proposed design follows the main features of the immediately adjacent houses (height, pitched roof and windows) sitting appropriately within its existing context.
We consider this to be a superb opportunity to create an individual home.
