THE PLOT

A Freehold building plot ( formerly garden of Avon Cottage ) with access from the very end of Southernhay Avenue leading to a parking area and onto the plot which forms a Southerly facing terraced site with fantastic harbour views.

The main plot is 29.5 m x 22m plus the driveway section which is just over 6m for most of its length and 10m long.
Main plot is 649 m2 plus approx. 58 m2 for the driveway area.

Sold with vacant possession.

LOCATION

Clifton and the surrounding areas, with its Victorian and Georgian architecture, are amongst the most sought after locations in the City. The area offers charm alongside excellent amenities with independent shops, boutiques, cafes, bars and restaurants to be found on both Whiteladies Road and Clifton Village including Clifton Down shopping Centre. The Downs offers four hundred acres of green public space whilst Brunel’s Clifton Suspension Bridge provides a gateway to the Ashton Court Estate with its woodlands, mountain bike trails and walks whilst there is excellent access to the exciting Harbourside district, the City Centre and Temple Meads.

THE OPPORTUNITY

PLANNING PREVIOUSLY GRANTED - FAMILY HOME

Planning has previously been granted to erect a stylish 3 bedroom detached family home ( 1980 Sq Ft ) arranged over two floors with fine views over the harbour.

IMPORTANT UPDATE TO CURRENT PLANNING SCHEME

The vendor has changed the eastern boundary, as shown on the approved planning permission, to form a more logical straight line between the building plot and the retained land, thereby, disabling the existing planning approval.
Prospective buyers would, therefore, need to submit a new planning application if they wished to build a house.

ALTERNATIVE SCHEME

There is scope to rearrange the layout to create a 4 bedroom scheme.
We understand there are further opportunities to create accommodation on the lower ground floor area.
Subject to gaining necessary consents.

PLANNING INFORMATION

Full details of the proposed scheme and drawings can be downloaded with the online legal pack.

GUIDE PRICE

An indication of the seller's current minimum acceptable price at auction. The guide price or range of guide prices is given to assist consumers in deciding whether or not to pursue a purchase. It is usual, but not always the case, that a provisional reserve range is agreed between the seller and the auctioneer at the start of marketing. As the reserve is not fixed at this stage and can be adjusted by the seller at any time up to the day of the auction in the light of interest shown during the marketing period, a guide price is issued. This guide price can be shown in the form of a minimum and maximum price range within which an acceptable sale price (reserve) would fall, or as a single price figure within 10% of which the minimum acceptable price (reserve) would fall. A guide price is different to a reserve price (see separate definition). Both the guide price and the reserve price can be subject to change up to and including the day of the auction.

RESERVE PRICE

The seller's minimum acceptable price at auction and the figure below which the auctioneer cannot sell. The reserve price is not disclosed and remains confidential between the seller and the auctioneer. Both the guide price and the reserve price can be subject to change up to and including the day of the auction.

BUYER'S PREMIUM

Please be aware all purchasers are subject to a £1000 + VAT (£1,200 inc VAT) buyer's premium which is ALWAYS payable upon exchange of contracts whether the sale is concluded before, during or after the auction date.
