Location...

The land is currently farmed and extends to 1.3 acres and may be suitable for residential development subject to statutory consents.

Planning...
The South East Lincolnshire Local Plan housing paper for Wigtoft identifies the site Wig015 as a reserved site suitable for residential development.

The character of the local area is for larger detached houses and it is hoped that a prospective developer would continue this rhythm of housing.

Tenure...
The land is available for purchase on a conditional or unconditional basis.
The land is available Freehold with Vacant Possession and is currently owner occupied.

Option Agreement...
The land is also available to purchase under a suitable option agreement for low density housing. The seller will retain the right to approve any development plans prior to submission.

The option agreement would be for a period of 2 years at an option fee of £25,000 which would be non-refundable and will be payable to the landowner.

A contribution towards our clients reasonable legal fees with regards to the preparation of the option agreement will be required, as well as a pre-agreed timescale for a planning submission with an appropriate long stop date for an appeal.

The purchase would be triggered by a suitable planning permission being granted and completion will be within 28 days of the judicial review period being completed.

The purchase price of the land is to be agreed at the outset of the deal.

Flood Risk

Environment Agency open data, checked around the advertised map pin for the listed acreage. Long-term risk counts flood defences; the planning map's flood zones do not. The map pin for this listing marks the postcode area rather than the exact location, so these readings describe the surrounding area. Provided by LandSale, not the listing agent, and not part of the agent's particulars. Risk varies across a holding, so verify before committing.
