Property description & features

The site offers an array of development opportunities comprising new builds, restoration and modernisation, totalling 10 units in all.


A mixed residential development site situated within the historic village of Owston Ferry in North Lincolnshire. The site offers an array of development opportunities comprising new builds, restoration and modernisation, totalling 10 units in all.

• Five new builds
• One barn conversion
• Four cottages
• Current and historic planning consents (full and outline)

Situation
The property is situated in Owston Ferry, a popular village lying to the west of the River Trent in north Lincolnshire. The village has a long history dating back to the 11th century, with a number of historical sites still evident today including the remains of Kinaird Castle and St Martin’s Church.

Owston Ferry offers a range of facilities, including a convenience store, GP practice, post office and the highly regarded White Hart and Crooked Billet pubs. A more comprehensive selection can be found in Gainsborough, Scunthorpe and Doncaster, all of which can be reached in a little over 30 minutes.

Whilst nestling in the countryside, the village is well serviced with the M180 motorway around 15 minutes away, providing excellent connections up, down and across the country via the M18, M62 and A1.

Description
The property is a mixed residential development site benefiting from both full and outline planning permissions offering the opportunity for 10 units in total.

The site extends to about 2.75 acres (1.11 hectares) and comprises a large three storey brick building being former workers cottages associated with ‘hemp or flax growing trade’ that was popular in the area in the mid to late 18th century. The cottages are in varied conditions with some needing modernisation whilst others requiring renovation.

Adjoining is a two storey L-shaped threshing barn believed to have been constructed at a similar time to the workers cottages. The barn has suffered storm damage and is in need of full restoration but once completed, will provide an exceptional four-bedroom dwelling with an estimated internal floor area measuring 3,660 sq ft (340 sq m).

Behind the barn are two large modern steel-framed buildings covering approx.. 9,000 sq ft (836 sq m). Next to the buildings is a large hardstanding yard suitable for storage, and beyond is an area of amenity grassland.

Planning
The property benefits from the following numerous planning consents by North Lincolnshire Council:

Ref: PA/2020/1345 - Full planning to convert existing barn to residential and erect two detached dwellings with associated works (approved March 2021).

Ref: PA/2021/1290 - Outline planning to erect 2 dwellings (including demolition of existing buildings) with all matters reserved for subsequent consideration (approved January 2022).

Ref: PA/2022/542 - to erect a detached dwelling and garage (Plot 3) with associated works (approved July 2022).

Full planning details available from the selling agents and the local authority’s planning website.

Design
Being grade listed, the design for the development has been carefully considered, striking a balance between restoring the historic features that add character whilst creating homes suitable for modern living. Further details including elevation drawings, layouts, and landscaping details available from the selling agents or local authority’s planning website.

    Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength: obtained from Ofcom on September 3, 2022

    Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:

    Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
    Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
    Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
    Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
    Enhanced: Full bars, likely to have good coverage indoors and to receive an enhanced data rate to support multimedia services
