Pike Lane, Armitage

The site is situated on the south side of the A513 at the junction with Pike Lane. The village has good local amenities and is handily placed for Lichfield, Rugeley and the A38, Birmingham Northern Relief Road and the motorway network.

The site is in the house and garden of 18 Pike Lane, Armitage, WS15 4AR. The site extends to some 0.74 acres or thereabouts together with a range of outbuildings that are suitable for conversion.

The architect has annotated an indication of what conversions could be achieved in the various buildings and this is set out in the sales particulars using the lettering adopted by the architect on the plan:

A (the main house) – 4 x apartments, 1 x studio together with an attic conversion.

C (outbuilding at rear of site) – 2 x two bedrooms flats. We have shown later on in these details a potential layout plan for this building. Permission has been given in the past for this conversion and it is hard to believe that this permission would not be renewed. The purchaser would be expected to investigate this for themselves.

D (outbuilding close to the main house) – 1 x one bedroom apartment

E (outbuilding close to the house) – 1 x studio flat

F (garages to the rear of the site) – 1 x three bedroom house

G (villa and billiards room connected to the house) – 1 x one bedroom apartment

This schedule indicates that there is potential to convert the house and the various outbuildings to provide a further 12 dwellings in total in addition to the 3 new build houses at the rear of the site.

Note
A more detailed schedule of the potential conversion options is included in the information pack.
