* Freehold
An exciting development opportunity within a sought - after village, comprising
a two - bedroom bungalow within a 0. 27 acre site with full planning consent to
replace with a traditionally styled, four bedroom two - storey house.
The property consists of a detached two - bedroom bungalow occupying a large
plot at the northern half of Flaxton village. The property is thought to date
from the 1950s and is constructed of brick outer walls beneath a concrete tile
roof. The bungalow needs significant repair and upgrading, and a recently
obtained planning consent allows for the site to be redeveloped and replaced
with a traditionally styled detached house, more in - keeping with other houses
within the village.
The site amounts to approx. 0. 27 acres and enjoys superb open views across
open farmland to the rear (west).
The approved new dwelling would be constructed in red brick, beneath a clay
pantile roof, and offer accommodation in the region of 181sq. m (1, 948sq. ft)
comprising porch, entrance hall, guest cloakroom, lounge, snug/study, open -
plan dining kitchen/family room and a utility room. To the first floor the
layout provides: Landing, four bedrooms (two with en - suite shower rooms),
study and a house bathroom. As part of the scheme, there is permission for a
larger than average single garage in the north - western corner of the site, to
be constructed in matching brick under a slate roof. Of course, the
opportunity also exists for a new owner to go back to the planning authority
to tweak the overall design or come up with something entirely different.
Please note that reduced copies of the plans are contained within the
particulars, but PDF copies can be emailed on request.
The property is likely to appeal to both developers and those looking for a
self - build opportunity, which is something of a scarcity within sought - after
villages such as Flaxton.
Flaxton is a popular conservation village set in open countryside
approximately 10 miles north of the City of York and a short distance south of
the rolling landscape of the Howardian Hills Area of Outstanding Natural
Beauty. The village is perfectly positioned to enjoy convenient access to the
A64 trunk road, linking with nearby commercial centres and motorway networks.
The sought - after market town of Malton is within a 20 - minute drive and has
earned a reputation as ‘Yorkshire’s food capital’. The village of Strensall is
only 10 - minute drive away and benefits from a comprehensive range of day - to -
day amenities.
