A rare serviced commercial development plot of 3.17 acres on the western fringe of Wincanton, offered with vacant possession and clear strategic road links. The site sits adjacent to the A371 with easy access onto the A303 corridor, making it well placed for regional distribution and light-industrial occupiers. Broadband is fast and mobile signal excellent — important operating advantages for modern businesses.
Outline planning permission (ref. 19/02245/OUT dated 21 April 2022) supports a masterplan of circa 97,000 ft² (9,000 m²) of E(g), B2 and B8 space with an indicative mix of 50% E(g), 25% B2 and 25% B8. The wider allocation forms part of a mixed-use scheme which includes new road connections, drainage, footpaths, cycle links, landscaping and parking; however the detailed consent and final build-out will require reserved matters and compliance with the approved masterplan.
Practical considerations: services are to be made available for connection but existing installations have not been tested — any purchaser should satisfy themselves on service status and capacity. The new access works (elongation of the roundabout and connecting road) are included as obligations within the adjoining residential scheme, so delivery of highway works is linked to that wider development programme. The plot offers clear development potential for occupiers or investors prepared to progress reserved matters and adopt the necessary infrastructure delivery timeline.
