Summary - Residential Development Land, High Hesket Business Park, High Hesket, Carlisle, CA4 0BW CA4 0BW
1 bed 1 bath Commercial Development
Well-placed rural site with advanced planning and housing association interest.
Outline planning permission for 27 homes (mix of 2, 3 and 4 bedrooms)
A substantial edge-of-village parcel with outline consent for 27 homes, positioned prominently off the A6 between Carlisle and Penrith. The site is level, partially surfaced, fenced and benefits from existing access, mature hedging and open countryside outlooks — attributes that reduce early infrastructure cost and speed delivery. A local housing association has provided a letter of intent to acquire nine affordable units and a further three units at market value, supporting sales certainty for a third of the scheme.
Planning is at an advanced stage: outline consent (ref. 19/0920) with committee support for full approval is in place, subject to two Section 106 agreements. The S.106 addressing nitrate neutrality is ready for execution; the S.106 covering social housing contributions and highways is signed but requires payment before full consent is sealed. These obligations and payments are material to programme and budget and should be factored into acquisition costings.
The site suits developers and investors seeking a medium-scale residential scheme in a well-connected rural location. Good road links (A6 and M6 access c.5.6 miles) and a nearby rail station at Armathwaite (c.2 miles) support commuter demand. Practical considerations include slow broadband provision and average mobile signal, and S.106 liabilities tied to nitrate neutrality, affordable housing and highways payments. Flood risk is nil and the plot size is generous, offering scope for design refinement or phasing to suit build-cost targets and market appetite.
