Description
This unique property, a dilapidated three-bedroom detached house and a double-skin brick-built outbuilding, sits on a 1.9-acre plot in the sought-after area of Morton-on-the-Hill. The property has development potential, with independent advice from a local architect suggesting that it could be suitable for a range of schemes, including a one-for-one replacement of the existing house, small-scale infill development, or a larger scheme. The site benefits from a flat frontage and appears to have no immediate highways constraints, but would require early pre-application consultation with Norfolk County Council Highways to confirm visibility splays and access standards. The property also has no known Tree Preservation Orders, but an arboricultural survey would be recommended to confirm which trees and vegetation require protection or can be removed. Additionally, the site is subject to nutrient neutrality requirements and would need to demonstrate no net increase in nutrient pollution, and would also need to deliver measurable biodiversity net gain. The property is situated in the picturesque Norfolk countryside, just 8 miles northwest of Norwich, and offers a range of development opportunities.
