Planning Status

Full planning consent was approved under Planning Application Reference 212222, dated 5th May 2022, for “Proposed 3 no. detached dwellings, with detached garage for existing house and associated works.”

The vendors have undertaken significant professional works in the form of a Geotechnical Survey Report and Structural/Civil Engineering Report. These were commissioned to alleviate any “unknowns” that buyers might have and to significantly reduce any elapsed time issues in having such works undertaken and approved by prospective purchasers.

An Application to Discharge Conditions was submitted on 18th April 2024 under Planning Reference 241032, and approved on 13th May 2024. Site works were subsequently undertaken in 2024. The planning permission has now been secured in perpetuity, as confirmed by Herefordshire Council in December 2024.

The proposed Elevations & Floorplans are displayed within this brochure. An online library of all project documentation is also available to potential buyers upon request, accessible via the DJD Associates secure portal.
