This corner site currently provides a range of redundant single-storey farm buildings but has received a favourable pre-application response for redevelopment.  The indicative drawings that were submitted with the pre-app include the demolition of the existing buildings and the construction of a terrace of four, three-bedroom dwellings together with off-street parking. Although redevelopment is still subject to formal planning consent the response is an indication from the Ryedale planning department that there is no objection in principle to the proposed scheme.  The sale of the site, therefore, provides an increasingly rare opportunity for small builders and developers to acquire a site that allows them to tailor the development to their own requirements.

Situated on the corner of Main Street and Ganton Road, the site enjoys a prominent location within the village.  Foxholes is a relatively small village located on the Yorkshire Wolds and is conveniently placed for commuting to the nearby towns of  Scarborough, Driffield, Bridlington and Malton.  The site itself extends to approximately 0.22 acres with a frontage onto Ganton Road of approx. 118 ft (36m) and a return frontage on to Main Street of approx. 92 ft (28m).

Pre-Application Details

A copy of the pre-application response from Ryedale district council planning department will be available for inspection in the legal pack.  The submitted indicative drawings show a terrace of four, three-bedroom dwellings however a purchaser may wish to alter the proposal to meet their own requirements.  The proposed drawings provided here are for illustration purposes only and are not to scale.
