Location
The site is on the edge of the settlement of Galley Common, which is approximately 3.5 miles east of Nuneaton town centre and 12 miles north of Coventry with excellent transport links to Birmingham and London. Nuneaton railway station has excellent services to London Euston, taking around 1 hour, and Birmingham New Street Station in about 30 minutes.
As well as Nuneaton, the towns of Atherstone, Hinckley and Bedworth are all close by and the location is within commuting distance of Birmingham, Coventry and Leicester, allowing easy access to work opportunities, shopping, leisure and healthcare.
Description
The site extends to 0.74 acres and has planning permission for five residential properties in an attractive semi-rural location.
The site comprises a gently sloping area currently laid to grass and has been managed informally as amenity space to benefit the adjoining Taylor Wimpey development. There is a surfaced track across the site, which was installed by TW as a requirement of the planning permission for the adjoining development site, to provide an emergency access. This has been designed into the current scheme in a slightly altered location.
There is no formal right of way in place. The site is immediately opposite the local primary school which is highly regarded and has a ‘good’ Ofsted rating. The adjacent car park was also installed as part of the TW planning permission although remains at present in our client’s ownership. It is currently used for school drop-off and pick-up purposes and is due to be transferred to the education authority in due course.
Planning Permission
The land has outline planning permission (all matters reserved except access and layout) for five residential dwellings, granted by Nuneaton and Bedworth Borough Council in May 2025 under reference: 039476. The proposed accommodation comprises:
Plot 1: 3 bed 990 sq. ft
Plot 2: 4 bed 1345 sq.ft
Plot 3: 3 bed 1356 sq. ft
Plot 4: 4 bed 882sq.ft
Plot 5: 2 bed 882 sq. ft
There are no affordable housing requirements and no S.106 contributions.
Services, Wayleaves and Easements
It is believed that mains water and electricity services are available in Broome Way, or via the car park (the seller will seek to reserve any necessary rights if this is transferred to the county council). Service providers are Severn Trent Water and National Grid.
