The land is currently unused.
None to our knowledge Montana 55 Ltd submitted a pre-planning application in 2017 which received a positive outcome Ref: PRE/0352/17
greenfield, however, the land originally included land now occupied by 15 Orwell Road which is a recent new build property, permission having been granted in 2014.
The pre-application submitted in 2017 was for four houses but the site layout can be adjusted to accommodate five. Properties would be a mix of sizes and styles. Access would be via Orwell Road where an access already exists. We have undertaken and completed visual and swept path analysis to ensure that the access is suitable for the development.
The site offers the opportunity to deliver a number of family houses in Barrington which is in demand. The site itself is currently just unsightly land and this provides the opportunity to enhance area for nearby residents and to make use of the land. Additional housing in Barrington will also bring additional custom to the local shop, post office and public house helping to make them more sustainable.
The site can accommodate five dwellings with gardens and parking for each, whilst also providing the necessary access road and turning points which is suitable for emergency vehicles and refuse collection. Increasing the number of properties would require a different layout which would have a much greater impact on the site and its surroundings and make access an issue. The site is approximately 0.5 hectare however, once the access road is taken into consideration the site is approximately 0.4 hectare. The layout of the site has been designed to ensure that existing properties are not impacted and that a sense of open space remains.

There is an existing access from Orwell Road which would need to be developed and surfaced. We have already under taken the necessary surveys to ensure it can support the visual splays and a swept path analysis to ensure that the access is capable of supporting the proposed number of units, emergency and refuse vehicles.
There is mains water, sewerage, electricity and telephone/broadband all available in Orwell Road where connections can be made via the access route.
The land is owned by Montana 55 Limited the site is ready for development subject to planning permission.
The site enjoys a private location close to the heart of Barrington and outside of the conservation zone. We have already had a number of prospective buyers ask when properties will be available as they are keen to live here in the village and very keen on the site location. There are good transport links close by with main roads A603, A10, buses, trains (Shepreth & Foxton), a shop, post office, public house, large green areas and sports facilities in Barrington which make it very attractive yet few houses come up for sale.
