Full Description
Situated on prestigious Chevet Lane in the heart of Sandal, this individual building plot represents a rare opportunity to create a substantial contemporary family home within one of Wakefield’s most highly regarded residential locations.
Full planning permission has been granted for the construction of one dwelling together with a new vehicular access under Wakefield Council planning application 23/01808/FUL. The permission is subject to the conditions contained within the Decision Notice.
The approved design provides over 3,000 sq ft of accommodation including the attached double garage and has been thoughtfully arranged with modern family living in mind.
The proposed ground-floor accommodation centres around an impressive entrance hall and a spacious open-plan kitchen, dining and sitting area, providing an excellent everyday family and entertaining space. This is complemented by separate lounge and dining rooms, together with a dedicated study ideal for those wishing to work from home.
To the first floor, the proposed accommodation provides five double bedrooms, including a principal bedroom suite, offering the space required for a substantial family home.
Externally, the approved scheme incorporates a new access from Chevet Lane, together with parking, landscaping and the attached double garage. The planning permission includes requirements relating to landscaping and tree protection, with the development to be carried out in accordance with the approved Arboricultural Impact Assessment.
For those looking to build an individual home rather than compromise on an existing property, this represents an exciting opportunity to create a striking residence to an already approved design in an established and highly sought-after setting.
Location
Chevet Lane is one of Sandal’s most established and highly regarded residential addresses and provides an attractive setting for the proposed development.
Sandal remains one of Wakefield’s most sought-after residential areas, combining an established suburban setting with convenient access to Wakefield city centre and the wider West Yorkshire region.
The location should prove particularly appealing to purchasers looking to create a substantial individual family home while remaining conveniently placed for the amenities and transport connections available in and around Wakefield.
