Features

Property description

A Parcel of land located a stone’s throw from the Market place, to which is was once connected! Originally a garden for number 6 Market place, this section of garden was cut off from the property itself when Kingsway was built. It is now heavily overgrown and has a relatively steep incline, however in years gone by did have a garage on it, on the relatively flat bottom section, with an access onto Durham Chare (Pictured)

Due to its location in the conservation area and typography, This site is unlikely to get planning permission for residential development, and even if this were possible, the costs associated with it would be very high, however it could provide a great garden, or other use. Potentially, given the previous precedent, it could house a garage, (Subject to suitable planning permission)

The title for sale is DU343060 and measures 627sq m and will come with a clawback provision included in the title in favour of the vendors and their successors in title. the payment due being equivalent to 50% of the uplift in value arising on the grant of residential planning permission, for a term of 25 years from the completion of the sale. This payment will be payable on the commencement of works or the resale of the land.

Reviews of JWW Bishop Auckland, the branch marketing this property.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I honestly can’t thank the team at JW Wood enough for the service I received. I initially contacted Barbara Smith after seeing a property advertised and, despite the very short notice, she managed to arrange a viewing for me within an hour of the property going live, with the viewing taking place that same afternoon. Martyn Hunter met us at the property and was brilliant. I decided to put an offer in and, incredibly, within another couple of hours the offer had been accepted by the vendor. Elizabeth Taylor then took care of all the paperwork and documentation, and by the following day I had everything sent through to my inbox. The whole process was unbelievably quick and straightforward, and everyone I dealt with was friendly, helpful and extremely efficient. You really don’t expect things to move that quickly when buying a property! A massive thank you to Barbara, Martyn, Elizabeth and the whole team at JW Wood. You made the whole experience so easy and stress-free, and I really appreciate the effort you all put in. Outstanding service from start to finish. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend JW Wood. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Chris
