Description

This property presents an opportunity for development on a 0.27-acre site situated in a predominantly residential area of Hornchurch. Located conveniently behind a row of shops along Station Lane, the site enjoys excellent accessibility with Hornchurch Underground station just a 0.4-mile walk away, offering direct links to Central London via the District line. The vicinity boasts good road connectivity, with the M25 Junction 29 located approximately four miles to the east and the A127 providing smooth access throughout Essex. The rectangular parcel consists of scrubland featuring low-quality vegetation and some existing hardstanding that is currently utilized for parking purposes. While there are no extant planning permissions, previous attempts to secure approval for six units were met with an encouraging assessment confirming the site's development potential. Investors and developers will find this land appealing due to its location and scope for future projects under new planning considerations. The opportunity exists to reimagine this space into a valuable residential or mixed-use development in a highly sought-after commuter belt area.
