Epping Road, North Weald, Epping OIEO £1,000,000

Residential / commercial development opportunity, subject to planning permission.

THE POPLARS

A rectangular parcel of land, on the northern side of the B181, within the Green Belt surrounded by Epping Forest.

The site offers huge scope for residential / commercial re-development subject to the usual planning consents.

We understand the site was formerly a pair of semi-detached cottages, the business use was established in the 1930s. Several buildings have been erected to the rear, which were previously used for storage and repairs of vehicles. The cottages were previously used as offices on the ground floor, with an independent flat on the first floor. The building is evidently in a poor state of repair and requires significant work to bring it back to a habitable standard.

The site itself is a combination of hard-standing and lawn area with some trees to the rear of the site.

LOCATION

The site is located in the village of North Weald. The village is sought-after and peaceful being surrounded by open farmland and Epping Forest. The popular town of Epping is situated approximately 1 mile away and Epping Central line Station offers direct access into The City and West End. The M11 and M25 are only a short drive away.

CURRENT USE CLASS

B1 (c) Light industrial and B8 storage or distribution.

SIZE

The plot measures 0.35 acres (STS).

TENURE

The property is offered for sale freehold, with vacant possession upon Legal Completion.
