Description
The site is located at number 190 Goresbrook Road, Dagenham, RM9 6XS. The site is 0.6 miles from Becontree Station (13-minute walk), PTAL 0.
The site is bounded by a flank wall to the west, rear gardens to the north and east and Goresbrook Road to the south. The site currently comprises overgrown left over open space located between an end of terrace house to the east and a semi-detached house to the west. Historic maps indicate that the site once formed part of 190 Goresbrook Road. A new site gate was fitted in 2020.
Important to note:
- Flood Zone 1 (Low Risk).
- PTAL (0) with closest local services a 10-minute walk away on Gale Street.
Due to size and layout constraints more than 10 units on this site is considered highly unlikely, which is the minimum required for affordable housing to be delivered. Should a scheme trigger affordable housing, 50% is expected on public sector land. Tenure mixes are expected to be in line with the Planning Note provided.
Proposals should aim to be zero carbon in operation and are required to be designed in accordance with the London Plan’s energy hierarchy. A minimum 10% of carbon savings should come from energy efficiency measures alone.
Freehold sale of the site will be by way of informal tender. The London Borough of Barking and Dagenham are seeking subject to planning offers. The purchase price will be subject to stamp duty.
