Description

Description

Christie & Co are delighted to bring to the market this exciting opportunity for a purchaser to acquire a substantial freehold property close to Dorset’s world famous Jurassic Coast and New Forest National Park.

The site was for many years home to a successful caravan and motorhome retail business but in 2019 planning permission was granted for the erection of 3 buildings offering a total of 24 2 bedroom apartments. This planning permission is believed to have now lapsed.

Location

The parcel of land is situated in a prime position between the market town of Dorchester and the popular coastal town of Weymouth which is on the world famous Jurassic Coast.

The site is immediately in front of Goulds Garden Centre and has excellent road transport links to Weymouth and the neighbouring town of Preston.

The immediate location has a wide range of amenities including schools, shops, leisure facilities, holiday parks and bus and rail services.

It is around a mile from the beach at Bowleaze Cove at Overcombe and close to RSPB Lodmoor nature reserve.

According to the latest census data there are over 162,000 people living within a 25 kilometer radius of the site, with the data highlighting favourable demographics with above UK average home ownership and owner occupied housing.

Planning Permissions

The site was granted planning permission to erect 24 flats (3 buildings with 8 flats per building). Full details of the planning application can be viewed on Dorset planning portal with the application reference number WP/17/00846/OUT

The planning permission contained a number of reserved matters and was to be commenced within two years of permission on 9th May 2019.
