Converted period buildings and extensive grounds ideal for a small residential scheme.
Planning permission granted for nine residential units (ref. 21/01038/FUL)
A rare development plot in sought-after Sutton Cheney with planning permission granted (ref. 21/01038/FUL) to convert existing buildings into nine residential units totalling approximately 11,060 sq ft GIA. The site comprises a period brick main building, former letting range, function room, paddock (about 0.7 acres) and extensive parking—offering clear scope for a premium small-scheme residential conversion in a picturesque village setting close to Market Bosworth.
Buyers should note material planning obligations: a S.106 requires delivery of a prefabricated community building (~84 m²), provision of open space including an equipped children’s play area, and retention of two rooms of the main building as a community pub. The retained pub rooms must be made fit for purpose by the developer; however, ongoing management is not required. Services are understood to be connected (water, electricity, sewage); there is no mains gas and LPG supply is proposed—prospective purchasers must verify utility connections.
The freehold sale offers vacant possession on completion and immediate implementation potential for a developer or investor confident in village schemes. The plot’s size, courtyard layout and range of outbuildings provide flexibility for unit layouts and landscaping; an adjoining cottage (Greyhound Cottage) is available by separate negotiation. Transport links are strong for a rural location, with Market Bosworth, Hinckley and Nuneaton stations within easy drive times, enhancing marketability to buyers seeking village living with city access.
This opportunity suits a developer or investor comfortable with planning obligations and conversion works. The site’s character buildings and countryside setting will appeal to purchasers targeting premium village homes, but budgets should allow for S.106 deliverables, refurbishment costs and any required works to the retained pub rooms and existing structures.
