Planning Permissions:
Planning permission (Ref: 11/24/00064) was granted in November 2024 for the redevelopment of the former Jobcentre building on Regent Street, Burnham-on-Sea. The approved scheme comprises a mixed-use development including eight residential apartments arranged over the first and second floors (four apartments on each floor) and a commercial unit on the ground floor. The plans provide for a mix of one- and two-bedroom apartments, together with a separate residential entrance from High Street and ground floor cycle and bin storage. A subsequent Non-Material Amendment (Ref: 11/25/00053) was approved, allowing revisions to the approved layout, including changes to the ground floor to accommodate a restaurant. The development is to be carried out in accordance with the original planning permission except where amended by the approved Non-Material Amendment.
Please note:
The integrity and structure of the property is ‘sold as seen’ and in addition there may well be some fixtures, fittings and chattels left at the property which will become the responsibility and ownership of the purchaser upon legal completion of the transaction. The property is situated within a Conservation Area. The sale price of the property is Plus VAT. The property is in significant need of repair, and we strongly recommend that prospective bidders obtain an appropriate survey to fully assess its condition prior to bidding.
