The Land - An exciting opportunity to acquire a substantial parcel of land occupying a highly desirable and established position in the heart of Eaton Bray, a charming Bedfordshire village.

The land comprises three adjoining plots, extending to approximately 0.99 acres in total, with each plot benefiting from direct frontage onto The Rye and gated access. The individual plots measure approximately 0.41 acres, 0.35 acres and 0.23 acres respectively.

The site enjoys an attractive village setting, nestled between existing detached residential properties at Nos. 7 and 15 The Rye, with further residential dwellings situated opposite. Its established residential surroundings, prominent position and substantial overall size make this an intriguing proposition for purchasers seeking land with potential.

There may be scope for residential or alternative commercial development, subject to the necessary planning consents. A previous planning application for the site was refused; however, the opportunity remains to explore a revised proposal or alternative scheme which addresses the reasons for refusal and satisfies the relevant planning requirements.

The combination of its size, location, frontage, accessibility and surrounding residential development makes this a particularly interesting opportunity for developers, investors and land buyers looking to acquire a substantial parcel with potential for future enhancement, subject entirely to planning.

Prospective purchasers are strongly advised to make their own enquiries with the Local Planning Authority and satisfy themselves regarding any future development potential before bidding.
