SSDC, dated 1st December 2022, granted detailed planning permission (application number: 20/01206/FUL) for the demolition of the existing farmhouse and outbuildings and the erection of 7no. dwellings (all open market), together with associated infrastructure works. The permission is subject to 24no. conditions.

COMMUNITY INFRASTRUCTURE LEVY
We understand that Community Infrastructure Levy (CIL) will be payable at a rate of £40-per sq. m. (£4.45-per sq. ft.) subject to indexation (BCIS All-in Tender Price Index). The net additional floor space, as set out in the CIL Form 1: CIL Additional Information is 703.3-sq. m. (7,570.2-sq. ft.).

Plots 1-6 will be accessed from Keep Street with a new junction. Plot 7 will be accessed from Keep Street with a separate access.

PHOSPHATE MITIGATION STRATEGY
The PRDS has an approved phosphate mitigation strategy in the form of replacing the existing septic tank with a package treatment plant. The buyer will be responsible for the implementation of the solution.

OVERAGE
The seller’s preference is for an overage provision to be contained within the sale contract. The details of the overage provision are subject to further discussion.

Yeovil being the regional centre for the area situated close to the Somerset/Dorset border provides a comprehensive range of excellent shopping, business and cultural facilities along with a desirable collection of restaurants, public houses and cafés. Yeovil is a very sporty town with a number of golf courses in the area, rugby union played at club level and Yeovil Town Football Club otherwise known as the Glovers.

Ham Hill to the west of Yeovil is centred on a huge Iron Age hill fort and is popular for picnicking, walking and mountain biking in the grassy hollows of the old quarry workings.

There are extensive opportunities for equestrian sport and active sailing clubs are based at Sutton Bingham Reservoir and in the Chew Valley.

Yeovil has some excellent road and rail links across the south and to London, making this a very desirable countryside location. There are two mainline railway stations at Yeovil Junction and Pen Mill with frequent daily trains to Exeter, Bristol and London Waterloo. The town is also served by four international airports – Bristol, Exeter and Bournemouth all within approximately an hour’s drive.

Services - All mains services are available near or on the site, with the exception of gas. The farmhouse is currently on a septic tank.
