A PLOT of land near Glastonbury – with permission for 24 new homes – is up for sale.
The 2.87-acre site, accessed from Pear Tree Farm, is being marketed by CSquared Bath with an asking price of some £1.5 million.
Last year, a planning appeal allowed plans for 24 homes on the site, including seven affordable homes.
“Currently used for agriculture land accessed from Pear Tree Farm located to the south, planning consent has been secured for 24 new build dwellings,” the listing said.
“The proposed development would be accessed from the adjoining approved residential scheme to the north and west of the site, which has a road junction onto the northern section of Old Wells Road.
“The indicative scheme includes the provision of an internal access road to serve the proposal extending from an existing residential development (currently under construction), on-plot parking, an attenuation pond, and a pumping station.
“The construction and specification are to be dealt with along with all other matters (layout, scale, appearance and landscaping) reserved for the subsequent approval.”
Initially, the planning application for development of the site was refused by Somerset Council, citing the nearby heritage assets such as Glastonbury Tor.
However, in November last year, planning inspector JJ Evans allowed the application, granting permission for up to 24 homes from T&A Land Associates Ltd.
