An opportunity to purchase a 'gateway' development plot of approx .75 acres, on the edge of the noteworthy village of Nuneham Courtenay, subject to planning permission. Surrounded by rolling countryside, and a short 5 miles from Oxford city centre.
LOCATION
This 'gateway' location to the iconic village of Nuneham Courtenay measures approximately .75 acres. It is located 5 miles from Oxford city centre, and less than 8 miles from the pretty market town of Wallingford. The site lies at the northernmost entrance to the village, where the speed limit drops to a civilised 20 mph. The land adjoining - Yew Tree Courtyard - was developed in the last several years, and all major services have been laid to the boundary of this site - electricity, water, and drainage. The village has an interesting history: originally mentioned in the Domesday book, in 1760 the entire village was moved and rebuilt to its current location, as the 1st Earl of Harcourt felt they spoiled his view. The village is in a conservation area and all the period cottages are listed. Nearby Harcourt Arboretum is part of the tree and plant collection of Oxford University's Oxford Botanic Garden. It includes ten acres of woodland, and a thirty-seven-acre wild-flower meadow.The village is in a prime location, with its close proximity to Oxford, and 7 miles to the market town of Wallingford. The village of Dorchester, with its medieval monastic Abbey, charming shops and restaurants, is only 4 miles away.
THE SITE
The site is offered for sale, with a 40% overage clause to remain in place for 30 years. The site would suit either a professional developer, or an owner-occupier who wishes to develop their own home.Previous planning was submitted that was not in keeping with the historic and aesthetic appeal of the village - and was therefore rejected. The owners believe the site will obtain valuable consent if a responsible, high quality and sympathetically designed scheme is proposed - subject to planning. This original northern entrance to the village was marked by two significant historic buildings - The (now disused) Harcourt Arms, to the western side, and the old Blacksmith's, on the eastern side - where this plot now resides. Any development would need to reflect and / or enhance the character of the community of Nuneham Courtenay - with a particular reflection to its importance as a 'gateway' site.The site was previously a car park for a fuel filling station and retail garage. The boundary of the site has been planted with hawthorn hedgerow.
