Land in Edwalton has gone up for sale with outline planning consent for nine large houses.
The 1.5 acre site, which fronts Melton Road in the suburb, is being sold by FHP Property Consultants.
David Hargreaves, joint founder of the property firm, said: "Many people will know this site as ‘the Xmas tree site’ on Melton Road, as many have bought their Christmas trees from the site over the years.”
Hargreaves confirmed that the land was up for sale with a price tag of '"offers in the region of £3 million". He added that there had already been "very strong early interest" from potential buyers.
Currently on the land is a four-bedroom bungalow, which stands on a 0.6 acre site, as well as a 0.9-acre field.
Jules Hunt of FHP Living said: “The site has outline planning consent for nine executive homes of 2,500 sq. ft, which, with sales prices of up to £450 per sq. ft in the area, should attract prices of £1million to £1.2million each. Adjacent to the site, FHP Living has sold four properties for £1million each.”
The firm said that although the outline planning consent is for nine houses, the site could suit three very large homes, an apartment scheme, or a care home or ‘later living’ development, subject to planning.
The site sits across the road from two ultra-luxury homes built by Guy Phoenix.
