A UNIQUE DEVELOPMENT OPPORTUNITY WITH PLANNING PERMISSION FOR 20 RESIDENTIAL DWELLINGS.
Low Wood Casterton lies within a beautiful wooded setting, comprising three former dormitory buildings and outbuildings which comprised part of Casterton Public School. The buildings were in active use until quite recently and have been maintained in excellent condition. The structure of the existing buildings requires relatively little modification to create the individual dwellings. This proposal offers a rare opportunity for a developer to proceed with a ‘ready to go’ project in one of the most desirable and affluent areas of the UK.

Location
The property lies within the beautiful Yorkshire Dales National Park, one mile north east of Kirkby Lonsdale, a small market town of great character, regularly voted as one of the best places to live in England and a finalist in the recent ‘Best High Street’ competition. There are a number of independent shops, cafes and restaurants in the town, including a very popular Booths foodstore.
The site lies within the village of Casterton itself, approached from Kirkby Lonsdale by the A683 via the well-known Devil’s Bridge and from Sedbergh to the north by the same road. The Lake District and Yorkshire Dales National Park are both easily accessible, as is the M6 motorway via junctions 34, via A683, 35, via B6254 and junction 36, via A65. The surrounding countryside, set in the glorious Lune Valley, provides superb opportunities for easy walking, cycling and other leisure activities.
