Land at Priestic Road, / Northern View, Sutton in Ashfield, NG17 2AQ

Description
The level site comprises a former licensed landfill of roughly rectangular and level shape. The site is currently open grassland and secure with metal palisade fencing around the north, west and southern boundaries. The western boundary abuts garden fencing of residential houses.

Location
Sutton-in-Ashfield is located approximately 4 miles south west of Mansfield, 12 miles north of Nottingham, 21 miles north east of Derby and 28 miles south east of Sheffield. The town lies immediately north of the A36 which connects Mansfield and Derby and also leads to junction 28 of the M1 motorway. The site is situated approximately 0.5 miles to the north of the town centre in a predominantly residential area. Priestic Road abuts the southern boundary and forms the primary road through the town connecting to the A38. Site access is taken from Northern View which runs along the western boundary.

Development Opportunities/Planning
The site is located within the settlement limits of Sutton in Ashfield. In the emerging local plan the site is being promoted as a housing allocation under policy H1 (site H1se Priestic Road, Sutton in Ashfield). The indicative yield is 19 dwellings. The site is also on the Council's Brownfield Register and is considered suitable for housing with a 'net dwelling' figure of 24 dwellings. Lapsed outline planning permission was granted under V/2009/0559 in February 2010 for the development of 24 semi-detached and terraced dwellings with 4 separate access points from Northern View.
The most recent application and supporting information is still viewable online under Ref V/2022/0133 but was withdrawn due to time delay/change of planning officers and their difference in opinion on the number of dwellings between 19 and 24 necessitating a fresh new application.

Tenure
We understand the property is held on a freehold title with vacant possession. Further details are available on request.
