A superb residential building plot with full planning consent for a pair of three-bedroom detached houses.

A rare opportunity to acquire a development site with the benefit of full planning consent for a pair of three-bedroom detached houses within the sought-after village of Bishop Wilton. The site is situated to the rear of 64 and 65 Main Street and is accessed via an unadopted lane that runs between Main Street and Park Lane. The approved dwellings provide approximately 1300 sq ft of accommodation over two floors and will enjoy South facing gardens and two off street parking spaces each. Although the plot has approval for two dwellings, in the auctioneer's opinion, it would also suit a single dwelling (subject to planning approval). The plot extends to approximately. 0.17 acres and has a frontage onto the lane of approx 130 ft (40 m) and a maximum depth (width) of approx. 65 ft (20 m) and a minimum depth of 36 ft (11.2 m).
