Property description & features

Development opportunity available for unconditional purchase. Refused planning for 36 x units in three blocks. I am advised by the vendor that the bulk and mass was the main reason for refusal and that if the number of units was reduced to 32 x units in three equally sized blocks, planning could be granted. Currently Block A comprising 18 x flats over four floors. 1 x bed approximately 41 m2 & 2 x bed approximately 60 m2. Bike store. Block B comprising 4 x house’s over two floors. Each unit is approximately 90 m2. 4 x parking spaces & private gardens. Block C comprising 14 x flats over four floors. 1 x bed’s from approximately 39 m2. Bike store. All flat’s benefit from communal outside space. All the flats have open plan living room/kitchen. Churchfield estimate the Gdv for the refused 36 x unit scheme at approximately £8,430,000.00. The site is currently occupied by a vacant former care home, that will require demolishing in order to develop this site. Bournemouth Borough Council planning application number: 7-2022-9829-F. The vendor advises me that the (36 unit) Combined CIL contribution was £68,608.00, the Section 106 is being negotiated, but hoping to pay nothing. The Heathlands is at £428.00 per house and £292.00 per flat. Contributions would be payable by the purchaser. No known covenants. No social housing requirement. Site area 1700 sq mt. The site is well located and only a short stroll to public transport, shops. The Centre of Bournemouth is within easy reach. For further details, please contact Andrew Hooper on[use Contact Agent Button]. More development land and investments available on our web site:
The vendor advises me that both his architect and planning consultant have confirmed that a development of 13 x houses on this site would be much more acceptable to BCP Planning, as such. If the site is not sold unconditionally soon. He will submit a new planning application for 13 x houses and then either sell the site with its new granted planning at a revised asking price or consider developing the site himself.
