POTENTIAL RESIDENTIAL DEVELOPMENT OPPORTUNITY IN LOW FELL
A significant site, suitable for residential development, in a prime location within Low Fell, close to the junction of Dryden Road with Joicey Road. Site area approximately 0.25 acre with frontage of 133 feet and depth of 89 feet.
A Planning pre- application was made to Gateshead MBC on 7 September 2020, proposing demolition of the existing buildings and the erection of approximately 8 no dwellings. In a detailed response, the Council said 'In principle, the development of the site for residential would be acceptable, subject to all other material considerations being satisfied.' Prospective buyers should read the full response document.
Last used as a community centre, the buildings would be suitable for a variety of uses, subject to all consents.
Buildings
These are substantial buildings, to include the original church building, together with various additions, comprising in total approximately 5000 sq feet (465 sq metres). There are external grounds to include yard/parking and internal courtyard. The site is located in a prime residential location and in our opinion would be ideally suited for a residential development project. Surrounding residential properties are of good quality and in our experience, readily saleable. NOTE. The electricity sub station, to the south is not part of the site.
Planning
Purchasers must make their own enquiries regarding planning or any other consents that may be required, before any redevelopment can be carried out. We have on file copies of the pre-application made to Gateshead MBC on 7 September 2020 and the Council's response dated 30 October 2020. Our clients do not intend to make any further planning applications and any buyer wishing to redevelop, must make all of their own enquiries and applications.
Rates
The buildings do not currently show on the Gov.uk site 'Find your business rates valuation'. All prospective buyers must make their own enquiries with regard to rating, if the premises are to be retained.
VAT
We understand that the current owners are not registered for VAT.
Tenure
Freehold
EPC Rating: Ordered
Services
We believe that all main services are available nearby but purchasers must satisfy themselves with regard to this.
Equipment
None of the equipment or systems within the buildings have been tested by the Agent and it is the responsibility of the purchaser to ensure that they are in working order and suitable for their requirements.
