Location
This is a superb level site with direct river frontage within South Shields, which is a very popular Market Town situate at the mouth of the River Tyne. Access is via Long Row, passing through Captains Wharf and the site is adjacent to the recent successful apartment development on Long Row. The site is extremely well located for access to the Town Centre, sea front and all local facilities, including the ferry across the Tyne. The apartments will overlook the recent residential developments within North Shields, on the northern bank of the river. There has been substantial investment and residential development on the South Shields riverside, with Cussins having recently launched the first release of town houses on their Holborn Riverside project.
Planning
Planning permission was obtained on 14/10/2021 for 'Proposed new residential development comprising of 13 no. residential apartments with associated works including car and cycle parking and landscaping'. Full details are available on the South Tyneside planning portal under reference ST/0693/20/FUL, including approved plans. The design includes car parking on the ground floor with three floors over. There are five flats to each of the first and second floors and three penthouses on the third floor. Any proposed amendments to these drawings will be the responsibility of the buyer. Subject to plannng considerations, it may be feasible to utilise the third floor for five apartments rather than three. Prospective buyers must satisfy themselves with regard to all planning and construction matters. We are currently unaware if any of the planning conditions have been satisfied and prospective buyers must make their own enquiries.
