Description

Extending to approximately 1.48 acres (0.60 hectares), the site comprises a broadly rectangular and level parcel of land, offering a highly workable site for redevelopment.

Previously occupied by Vernon Infant School, the site is now vacant and includes a former school building with grassed areas, trees, and hardstanding. The existing single-storey structure, dating from the 1930s, provides approximately 12,814 sq ft. We understand the building has been vacant since 2007.

The site presents a compelling opportunity to deliver a high-quality residential type scheme (subject to planning permission). The site is particularly well suited to a range of uses, including private housing or specialist accommodation such as extra care, subject to the necessary planning consents.
