Description
An exciting employment development opportunity within a growing local catchment area. The site extends to circa 1.13 acres and has planning permission for an industrial unit extending to 10,110 sqft (939 sqm) GEA subdivided into four separate units, to include a loading and parking area to the rear, along with a one-way traffic circulation route off Drift Road.

Location
The site is located in the well-regarded area of Castle Gresley, on the outskirts of Swadlincote, South Derbyshire. The site is situated to the south of the Cadley Hill Industrial Estate which is an existing employment area and positioned adjacent to a newbuild residential development. The A444 Burton Road provides access to the site via Drift Road which is situated to the west of the site.
Junction 11 of the M42 is positioned approximately 7 miles to the south of the site, and the Barton-under-Needwood junction for the A38 is approximately 7 miles to the west, which both provide excellent access to the M6 and M1 motorway network respectively.

A gas pipeline and mains water pipeline are located in Drift Road. Service plans are provided within the data room. An electricity substation is located on the site.
None of the above services have been tested and purchasers should note that it is their specific responsibility to make their own enquiries of the appropriate authorities as to the location, adequacy and availability of mains water, electricity, and drainage services.
Planning
The site was initially granted consent by South Derbyshire District Council under planning permission ref. 9/2018/0162 (as varied under Section 73) for a mixed-use scheme of residential and employment uses. The residential development on the southern part of the site has been delivered by St.Modwen Homes.
Reserved matters approval for the employment scheme including parking, landscaping and associated works ref DMPA/2022/0932 was granted on 4th March 2024. The permitted scheme is for a building of 10,110sq.ft. (939 sqm) GEA subdivided into four separate units. This meets the requirements of the outline permission for the delivery of employment floor space on the wider development scheme.
Access
Access to the site is from Drift Road which is covered by a Section 38 agreement. The road is due to be adopted by the Local Authority by the end of 2024.
