A compact, triangular roadside parcel on Legbourne Road comprising a mature copse and small pond. The site extends to approximately 534 sq m (0.13 acres) and benefits from full planning permission granted on 15 March 2021 for a Forestry Store and Shelter, including provision for a new access onto Legbourne Road. Its freehold tenure and prominent main-road frontage give clear visibility and straightforward ownership transfer.
The location is on the south-western edge of Louth, adjacent to recent housing developments (Hubbards Walk, Alexander Park) and opposite Agarth House, with Louth Garden Centre and local amenities close by. The immediate setting is rural, with open fields and detached dwellings; Kenwick Park Golf Club and good road links (B1200 to A157) are nearby. There is no recorded flood risk and local crime levels are low.
The plot suits a single dwelling, ancillary garden/pond or the consented forestry store use; alternative uses may be possible subject to planning (STP). Important constraints: the site is small, access and services are not confirmed on the plan, and the current vegetation is overgrown. Prospective buyers should commission a desktop planning enquiry, topographical/survey work and utility checks to confirm exact boundaries, access feasibility and service connections.
This is a niche opportunity for a buyer seeking a small, visible parcel with mature trees and water feature on the edge of Louth. It will particularly suit a self-builder, investor looking for a single-plot scheme, or someone wanting a private garden/pond close to town — provided the buyer completes the necessary due diligence on access, services and any alternative planning ambitions.
