Land to the rear of Gatesgarth, Braithwaite, Cumbria CA12 5RY

0.24 acre plot of land situated in the Lake District National Park some 2.5 miles west of Keswick between Derwentwater and Bassenthwaite Lake. The site would be ideal for a single dwelling subject to planning approval. Interested parties should make their own planning enquiries regarding their proposed use. A pre-application discussion was held with the Lake District National Park Planning Authority in 2016 which confirmed that a single dwelling would fulfill a role in providing for local housing needs and that there is sufficient land to accommodate a building, amenity space and access. The LDNPA also confirmed that they would not object to a single dwelling on the grounds of access and highway safety. A recent application nearby (ref 7/2023/2264) has been approved for 15 dwellings.
