Notes from the planning consultant; DRYFIELD COTTAGE, RIVINGTON The plans that have been produced suggest a possible range of extensions to the existing cottage. These include single storey side and rear extensions aimed at providing proportionate additions to significantly enhance the overall floorspace of the dwelling. The site of Dryfield Cottage is located within the designated Green Belt, where development is very much restricted. As a consequence, the use of ‘permitted development’ (PD) does offer the potential for extensions and the like that otherwise may not be granted planning permission. These provisions (PD) have been influential with regard the plans which have been prepared. Consequently, the extensions are aimed at benefitting from ‘permitted development’ i.e. elements of these proposals are unlikely to require planning permission. If the development was proposed, as suggested, or variations of such a development, then further discussion would be required as regards the position in respect planning legislation. It would be recommended that a ‘Certificate of Lawfulness’ or ‘Prior Approval’ from Chorley Council should be persued. Further advice can be given in this respect. The extensions, as proposed, are architect designed and seek to sympathetically extend the initial cottage in a contemporary way. The design has specific regard to the relative scale which would result between the existing and proposed, roof profiles, the proportion of the window openings and use of facing materials. The outbuilding proposes ancillary residential provision, including an ensuite bedroom, day/hobbies room and small gym. Alternative residential uses, which would be incidental to the main use of the site for the existing dwelling may well be acceptable. The site plan also includes off street parking. The proposals seek to take full advantage of the site and existing dwelling including maximising views across the site and to the wider landscape, sunlight, and daylight into rooms and maintaining privacy. Further information is available regarding the potential for development on the site can be provided. Agents description  A fantastic and rare opportunity to purchase a detached home which is situated within a generous plot of around 0.224 of an acre and located in a very high calibre semi rural location with open fields to the side and rear plus a superb view of Rivington Pike and the surrounding hills. The property would no doubt suit those downsizing from a large home but wishing to retain large gardens and a high quality location. There is also great potential to work with the existing structure and gain planning permission to extend and thus create a house tailored to a buyers own style and specification. Equally, a buyer my consider wholesale redevelopment of the plot where the location can support selling figures in excess of £1M. The current layout includes a lounge and breakfast kitchen to the ground floor and two bedrooms plus bathroom and separate shower room to the first floor. Either the shower room or bathroom could easily be sacrificed to create an additional bedroom.  We are advised that the property is Freehold and council tax band E The Area: Dryfield Lane is a highly regarded road in Rivington which is a village just on the outskirts of Horwich. The location blends a rural setting seamlessly with excellent access to facilities and an excellent transport links. The popular and independent Bolton School is around 5 miles away and Dryfield Lane is close to their bus route. Horwich town centre, which includes a good collection of largely independently owned shops and services is under one mile away whilst larger retail outlets can be found towards the Middlebrook development close to the football stadium which includes associated transport links (Horwich Parkway train station on the mainline to Manchester plus junction 6 of the M61). Blackrod train station is physically the closest rail link, is on the main line to Manchester and is around 1.5 miles away whilst the motorway junction is around 3 miles aware. Those busy working in Manchester city centre, for example, would no doubt relish their journey home to a rural retreat to enjoy the country park setting and enviable views. The area is synonymous with the philanthropist Lord Leverhulme who is understood to have socialised with the owners of properties in the area. To enjoy a slice of the towns heritage along with an individual residence and proportionate garden then look no further. This could well be the home for you.
