This freehold land on Romilly Road comes with full planning permission for a three-storey detached house with rooftop terrace, landscaped garden and off-street parking — a rare approved scheme in a park-side location. The consented design shows open-plan living, multiple reception rooms and five bedrooms including a top-floor master suite, giving clear scope for a high-value new build or a speculative developer sale.
The existing building also offers renovation potential for someone preferring to retain character rather than rebuild; the site is described as needing renovation. Practical strengths include a decent plot size, off-street parking, no flood risk, excellent mobile signal and fast broadband — useful for modern living or lettings. The property sits beside Thompson’s Park and benefits from urban amenities close by.
Material considerations: the wider area is recorded as very deprived, and details provided have not been independently verified — purchasers should commission their own survey, planning compliance check and legal searches. The sale notes an AML administration fee is charged by the seller after offer acceptance; buyer responsibilities and fees should be clarified before committing.
This opportunity will suit developers, investors or an owner-builder seeking a high-spec family residence close to green space. Buyers wanting a quick, low-risk conversion should note the site needs renovation if not proceeding with the approved rebuild.
