Acting on behalf of a private landowner client, Alder King was instructed to review the potential and negotiate a Subject to Planning contract on this 5.7 acre / 2.3 hectare parcel of land to a national housebuilder.

The site, located outside of the settlement boundary but bounded by development on two sides,  brought much needed development to this village, providing a mix of affordable and open market housing.

Consent was initially refused despite having Planning Officer’s recommendation but permission was granted at appeal and the sale to David Wilson Homes was completed in September 2016.

We are now working with the same landowner client for a Phase II disposal, having ensured that access to possible future development land was reserved within the design.
