Property description & features
- Tenure: Freehold
- Potential residential development
- Superb town location
- Lapsed outline planning for dwelling
- New plans awaiting decision
A potential residential development opportunity within the sought after Somerset town of Somerton. Historic outline planning for a new two storey home with new plans currently lodged with Somerset District Council.
Located close to the centre of Somerton, The Old Dairy Shop is a former commercial unit, offering significant potential for residential development, or renovation for continued commercial use.
Currently in need of renovation, the property offers vehicular access to off-street parking from Behind Berry, and sits in a site of approximately 0.046 acres.
Proposed development
Outline planning permission was granted on 10th January 2011 for the demolition of the existing buildings and the erection of a residential development with vehicular access from Behind Berry (10/04436/OUT). The initial proposal was for a two-storey, three bedroom house, allowing for a garage, parking and rear garden areas.
This planning permission has now lapsed, but new plans have been submitted to Somerset District Council (21/03812/FUL) for the change of use of building from commercial to residential including alterations to the existing buildings with raised roofline. These plans currently await a decision, having been submitted on 2nd March 2022.
The currently submitted plans allow for a two-storey, four bedroom dwelling with courtyard garden and off-road parking for one vehicle.
