About this property

Development opportunity available for unconditional purchase. Refused planning for 36 x units in three blocks.

The vendor advises me that both his architect and planning consultant have confirmed that a development of 13 x houses on this site would be much more acceptable to BCP Planning, as such. If the site is not sold unconditionally soon. He will submit a new planning application for 13 x houses and then either sell the site with its new granted planning at a revised asking price or consider developing the site himself.
