EXCITING RESIDENTIAL DEVELOPMENT OPPORTUNITY WITH FULL PLANNING PERMISSION FOR A TOTAL OF 14 UNITS AS PART OF AN ATTRACTIVE SCHEME OF MIXED HOUSE STYLES BUT WITH NO REQUIREMENT FOR ANY AFFORDABLE HOUSING. Woodhall Spa is a highly sought after, indeed nationally renowned Spa resort, and although situated on the edge of the village it is only a mile from the centre where there is an excellent range of amenities and is also adjacent to the old railway line along the River Witham providing picturesque walks in to the surrounding countryside.
The property is a level site extending to some 2.6 acres (1.05 ha) forming the grounds to the Railway Inn Pub and has previously been used as a small caravan park. As such we understand all mains services are available on the site although potential buyers should make their own enquiries in to the location, feasibility and cost of any further infrastructure requirements in this respect. This in conjunction with there being no requirement for any affordable housing, in the agent's opinion make this a very appealing scheme for developers. The Railway Inn is owned by the vendor and will continue to trade.
The currently permitted scheme includes eight no 4 and 5 bedrooms executive family homes together with six no large town houses. However there is potential, subject to a new consent, to revise this to a higher density development. An example of such a scheme has previously been prepared by the vendor and is included at the end of these details.
The six 4 bed houses are some 2,200 sqft each, the two 5 beds 2,992 sqft each and the six town houses are 1,076 sqft each.
PLANNING
The site has the benefit of full planning permission granted by East Lindsey District Council on 14th August 2019 under reference S/215/01685/17 for the erection of 14 no dwellings and a link to the relevant page on the ELDC planning portal can be found below.
PLANNING IS NOW EXTANT AND PRE START CONDITIONS HAVE BEEN DISCHARGED. THE SITE IS THEREFORE READY TO BUILD.
A PRE APPLICATION HAS BEEN SUBMITTED AND APPROVED IN PRINCIPLE FOR AN ALTERNATIVE SCHEME OF 25 HOUSES
The section 106 agreement does require a £32,000 contribution toward local education facilities.
LOCATION
Enjoying a beautiful wooded setting complimented by attractive Victorian and Edwardian architecture this desirable village is not only convenient for the Cathedral City of Lincoln some 19 miles to the North West but also the traditional market town of Horncastle only 8 miles away and which is regarded as the gateway to the stunning Lincolnshire Wolds. In addition of important note is that at Grantham and Newark both approx. 32 miles away there is access to the A1 and Intercity Rail Services on the East Coast mainline. Woodhall Spa is a former spa village and is now a popular tourist resort offering a wide range of leisure facilities including two championship golf courses, Jubilee Park, Kinema In the Woods and is the home of The National Golf Centre. The village offers a good range of local amenities including two supermarkets (a Co-op and Budgens), Post Office, pharmacy and a good number of other national, regional and local retailers. There are a number of well-regarded hotels in the village including The Golf, Petwood and Dower House, which serve a large number of tourists visiting the village and surrounding area. Of particular historic interest locally is Coningsby RAF base where the 'Battle of Britain Memorial flight' is based, which is about 3 miles to the south of Woodhall Spa.
