Planning - A previous owner knocked down the existing residential property and began work on a new 2/3 Bed property without the benefit of planning permission. Work had started on a cellar, with the foundations having been completed.

Rugby Borough Council (who are aware the plot is for sale) have provided written confirmation to the current owner that they would be in support for a like-for-like rebuild, stating that:

‘the site lies within the urban area of Rugby one of the most sustainable parts of the Borough where the principle of development is acceptable, subject to other material planning considerations being satisfactorily addressed.’

Interested parties are advised that all enquiries relating to planning should be directed to Rugby Borough Council. The agent cannot provide any planning advice other than what is written in these particulars
