Cliff Lane, Ipswich, IP3

Description

An excellent opportunity to acquire a residential development site in a well-regarded area of Ipswich, with planning permission for the construction of four attractive new homes.

The proposed scheme comprises four three-bedroom semi-detached properties, each offering approximately 93 square metres of internal living space. The homes are designed with modern layouts, generous garden space, and associated off-street parking.

Full planning permission has been granted by Ipswich Borough Council. Further details can be found on the council’s planning portal under reference: 24/00855/FUL.

We understand there are no CIL or Section 106 obligations associated with the development. Biodiversity Net Gain (BNG) contributions are anticipated to be in the region of £5,800.

This is a compelling opportunity for developers or investors seeking a ready-to-go residential project in a desirable location. Early expressions of interest are encouraged.

For further information, please contact Company Director Michael Simpson via our office.
