Rare development opportunity on 2.4 acres with planning for a barn
Description
An exceptional opportunity to acquire a 2.4 acre site of prime land located in the picturesque and highly desirable area of Cromer Hyde. This enclosed site comes with planning permission (planning ref: 6/2023/2080/VAR) for an agricultural store building, offering excellent scope for future development including potential for residential conversion (subject to planning).
This beautifully enclosed site is an open agricultural field that enjoys far reaching views across the surrounding Hertfordshire countryside while offering a peaceful and private setting. The site is already partially landscaped, with a well defined perimeter, bounded by a mature tree lined hedge which serves to separate both physically and visually, the site from the Listed public house located Marford Road. The site has access infrastructure in place including a gravel drive and gated entry.
To the west of the site is Cromer Hyde Lane with a number of residential properties lining the first 270 meters of Cromer Hyde Lane, which are principally located to south of the lane.
Location
Cromer Hyde Lane lies on the outskirts of Welwyn Garden City close to the pretty village of Lemsford, the lane is approached off the B653 to Wheathampsted, immediately after The Crocked Chimney public house, it is a no through road. It is also in close proximity to the Hertfordshire Way and the extensive network of footpaths and bridle ways. The nearest town is Welwyn Garden City, just 1 mile away with a comprehensive range of shopping and leisure facilities and its own main line railway station offering a regular commuter service into Kings Cross, London. The A1(M) junction 4 is within 1 mile and the old market town of St Albans just over 7 miles away, which has an excellent choice of schools and colleges. Brocket Hall Golf Club is close by and the village of Wheathampstead has a variety of shops and restaurants.
