Street Address

Exeter Road Crediton, EX17 3BH

Property description

A very prominent site containing a period 3-storey house in need of complete renovation plus large yard/car park and substantial range of commercial buildings - brilliant development potential (stp)

DESCRIPTION

This prominently located site extends in all to about a third of an acre and is consists of large 3-storey house, large commercial yard/car park, and range of commercial buildings. The property has a wide range of possible uses and would suit many trades and professions who are looking for a prominent location in Crediton. It adjoins Exeter Road, and is convenient for the large Tesco superstore, Shell fuel garage, train station and bus stop. The High Street is about half a mile to the north with its wide range of facilities. In the opinion of the agents there is excellent development potential and a great opportunity to change and enhance the gateway to Crediton. The house itself contains spacious 4 bedroomed accommodation over 4 floor levels, in need of complete refurbishment and renovation.  The commercial buildings are mainly brick and corrugated construction. 

Please note that some of the garages to the north of the site can be purchased by separate negotiation. 

SERVICES

Mains electricity, water and sewer are available for connection on site, please make your own enquiries concerning capacities and additional connections to the statutory undertakers direct.

ACCESS

We are informed that the vehicular access to the site was altered when Midas Homes carried out their nearby development a few years ago to the approval of Devon County Highways at the time.   

TENURE

The property is available on a freehold basis with vacant possession on completion.

VAT

VAT will not be charged on the sale of the land. 

PLANNING POTENTIAL 

Mid Devon District Council have historically indicated that a residential scheme of up to 4 new build houses to the north of the site and refurbishing and converting the main house into 2 apartments and converting the warehouse to the south of the main house into 2 apartments. The new dwellings should be designed to be  linear style with roof levels, maintaining and enhancing the rhythm of the existing brick buildings, whilst providing garden and parking space at the rear.  

A Pre App, reference 15/01811/PREAPP, was submitted last year, enquiring whether Mid Devon would allow the main house to be demolished.  Mid Devon stated that it would resist the demolition of the main house as it is in a Conservation Area.  For demolition to be allowed a strong case would have to be made that the main house was in a poor structural condition; that the buildings are not significant in the Conservation Area and proof that the retention of the main house would make the site unviable to develop.  Further information concerning the Pre App is available by contacting the Helmores office direct.

OFFERS

The property is offered for sale by private treaty.  The vendor is seeking to dispose of the site on an unconditional basis.

All neatly held in a single valley.
