Plans to demolish the existing buildings which form a builders merchants and construct residential dwellings have been approved.
The site is situated to the rear of 102 Chapel Lane and can be accessed off either Chapel Lane or Buckingham Road.
The outline proposal is to demolish the majority of the existing buildings, which form the builders merchants site which is still in operation and run from the site employing five members of staff. These will be replaced with two detached houses, changing the use of the land to residential.
The exact size and scale of each property would be subject to a reserved matters application. Pedestrian and vehicular access would be via Buckingham Road with off-street parking provided on a designated driveway for each property, for up to 3 vehicles.
Wilmslow Town Council recommended refusal of this application on the grounds of overdevelopment of the site in terms of the proposed scale and massing.
The plans can be viewed on the Cheshire East Council website by searching for planning reference 22/4536M.
