Features and description

  • Offers invited for formal tender for this development opportunity
  • New build and refurbishment project with outline planning permission
  • Erection of three 3-, 4- and 5-bedroom detached dwellings
  • To include existing farmhouse - in need of total refurbishment
  • Set in approximately 23 acres of Grade 3 agricultural land
  • Outline planning permission number 2021/1257/OUT
  • Excellent location for villages and commuter transport links

Outline planning permission has been granted for a proposed residential development of three detached dwellings, two with double garage, in this semi-rural setting, standing within twenty-three acres of Grade 3 agricultural land. The permission is subject to the demolition of the existing agricultural buildings with outline permission for the erection of three-, four- or five-bedroom detached houses. In addition, there is a detached farmhouse, requiring renovation/modernisation.

The outline planning consent is to demolish agricultural buildings and erect three detached dwellings with associated garages, driveways and access road. Potentially, at least two plots could benefit from a share of the adjacent twenty-three acres of Grade III agricultural land.

The site sits within the small rural village of Wrightington Bar as designated in the West Lancashire Replacement Local Plan where the principle of limited residential development of up to four dwellings would be acceptable. The existing farmyard is made up of hard standings throughout which lead onto the open fields of circa twenty-three acres. The site edged red is 0.49 acres and falls gradually from west to east by approximately one metre.

The new development has been designed in an informal layout using buildings considered to fit in with the rural character of the area. Total proposed volume is 2238m3 - 973.17m2.

The layout has been designed to accommodate three properties whilst maintaining the existing farmhouse and access through the site to the fields to the rear. Vehicular and pedestrian access will be via the existing access which feeds off Carr House Lane. A minimum of three parking spaces will be provided for each dwelling and the existing farmhouse.
