About this property

  • Around 3.2 acres of lawned land and orchards

  • Incredible location

  • Private driveway access from Sydney Buildings/Horseshoe Walk

  • Exciting opportunity

  • EPC Rating = F

A fantastic and unusual opportunity to acquire a enviably located development site off Sydney Buildings with full planning permission for a single detached dwelling.

Description
Smallcombe Nurseries presents a rare opportunity to acquire an exceptional parcel of residential development land in one of Bath’s most extraordinary and unspoilt valley settings. Smallcombe Nurseries benefits from full planning permission (Bath & North East Somerset Council planning reference 23/04799/ful) for residential development within a highly sought-after location on the southern slopes of the city.

The land occupies a truly remarkable position, combining a sense of seclusion and natural beauty with close proximity to Bath city centre, making it ideally suited to the creation of a high-quality, low-density scheme.

The site extends to approximately 3.2 acres (1.3 hectares) and is currently laid out as former nursery land, with mature trees, hedgerows and natural boundaries. The topography and setting offer a high degree of privacy, while creating the opportunity for a sensitive and well-considered development that responds to the surrounding landscape and enviable orientation.

Planning Permission
The consent allows for residential development for a single detached four bedroom house, subject to the approved plans and associated conditions. The scheme has been carefully considered in the context of its “countryside” landscape setting, access arrangements and environmental constraints.

Prospective purchasers are advised to make their own enquiries with the Local Planning Authority and to review the full planning documentation.
