The site is located within the emerging development known as Roman Heights at Streethay on the north-eastern edge of Lichfield.
The development occupies an accessible location at the junction of the A5127 (Burton Road) and A38 approx. 1.5 miles north of
Lichfield City Centre. Lichfield Trent Valley Railway Station is a short walk from the site.

The site is an L shape configuration and currently compromises undeveloped agricultural land adjacent to the emerging Roman Heights development. It is broadly flat and is bounded on its southern boundary by residential properties on Burton Road. A new internal estate road has been constructed along its northern boundary. The site is adjacent to the new Primary School and an area of landscaping and is close to the site's principal entrance off the Burton Road making it very accessible.

The site extends to 0.59 hectares (1.47 acres) as shown edged red on page 2

The site is available freehold with vacant possession.

An outline Planning Permission was obtained inDecember 2014 (12/00746/OUTMEI) for the construction of a sustainable mixed use urban extension comprising of up to 750 dwellings, a primary school , mixed use community hub and
local centre to include retail development (use classes A1, A2, A3, A4 and A5), community building (D1 use class) and care home.

The residential scheme is now well progressed. This scheme will deliver up to 750 new homes while a resolution to grant planning permission has just been received on land to the North for a further 200 units.

Please note that the seller will be responsible for paying £250,000 to Lichfield District Council as part of the Section 106 Agreement.

The opportunity exists for developers to acquire and deliver an exciting and vibrant mixed use local centre to support the surrounding new homes, school and care facility. The site can provide a convenience store, a pub/restaurant (on a site of 0.5 acres with 51 dedicated parking spaces) and a community facility (required under the s.106). It should be stressed that this scheme does not have detailed Planning Permission and would therefore be subject to Reserved Matters approval. Initial, verbal, discussions with Lichfield District Council have been had and interested parties are encouraged to make their own enquires.
