Truro - Gloweth Barton Development Site

This superb residential development opportunity, situated opposite the Royal Cornwall Hospital in Truro benefits from planning permission for 32 new dwellings (ref. PA16/03032). The site is presently occupied by a disused farmhouse and number of redundant outbuildings which are arranged around a rectangular concreted yard and set within small fields, interspersed by trees and hedges which offer a unique semi-rural character within the built up area of Truro. Located on the southern side of the A390 and within walking distance of the town, commercial areas, schools and colleges, the site has residential development to the east, south and west. The site is proposed to be accessed from the A390 on the northern boundary, via a tree lined access lane that would be adopted as part of any approved scheme. The site slopes from north-east to south-west, and has a pedestrian right of way which currently bisects the site, which will be retained and enhanced by the proposed scheme. The approved development consists of the construction of 12 affordable dwellings and 20 open market dwellings, over one, two or three floors. The units would include a range of one-bed apartments and two, three and four bedroom houses with varying sizes of gardens ranging from 65m2 to 837m2. The site extends to c. 1.04ha / 2.57 acres
