Lot 120 Large Basement With Lapsed Planning For Two-bedroom Flat With GardenAuction Date:
14th December 2022
Basement, 49-51 High Street, Sittingbourne, Kent, ME10 4AW
Located on the High Street close to local amenities and Sittingbourne's mainline railway station is this attractive period property with the vacant basement (measuring approximately 1,413 sq.ft.) to be sold on a new lease.
Planning Permission was granted for conversion of the basement to provide a two-bedroom flat which would also benefit from a good sized garden, but this has now lapsed. There may be potential for an alternate scheme, such as a commercial use, subject to all necessary consents being obtainable.
There is access to the basement, both from the High Street and from within the building, and if the conversion is carried out there would be an additional access from the rear once excavated. The rest of the building has been converted into five residential units and two commercial units which have all been sold on long leases.
Planning
