Summary - DAVID LLOYD LEISURE, UNITED WAY CO4 6AT
1 bed 1 bath Light Industrial
Large road‑facing site with strong transport links, ideal for commercial or mixed-use schemes.
6.59 acres (2.42 ha) cleared development site
A substantial cleared development parcel of approximately 6.59 acres (2.42 ha) positioned immediately south of Junction 28 on the A12. The site benefits from high visibility and direct road access, with mains water, electricity and drainage available to the site boundary. Its scale and location within the Colchester Northern Gateway make it suitable for a wide range of commercial, light industrial or mixed-use schemes, subject to planning.
The plot sits between David Lloyd leisure facilities and Via Urbis Romance road, with Camulos Academy and residential areas to the south. Colchester city centre is about three miles away and the mainline station sits roughly two miles from the site, providing regular services to London. There is no designated flood risk for the site.
Key considerations for purchasers are planning and infrastructure. Development will require enquiries with the Local Planning Authority; the site is offered with an expectation of offers on either an unconditional basis or conditional subject to planning. Broadband provision at the site is presently very slow, and the location adjacent to a major trunk road means traffic noise and servicing arrangements should be assessed during scheme design.
This is a clear plot for a developer or investor seeking scale and strategic road connectivity in an affluent, professionally populated area. Immediate access to utilities at the boundary and proximity to local amenities reduce lead-in constraints, but progression will depend on satisfactory planning, technical due diligence and infrastructure upgrades where needed.
