## About this tender

Former local authority care home occupying a rectangular and essentially level site extending to a gross area of about 1.21 acres (0.486ha). The property is accessed by a spur off Brook Road and this is to be retained as the entrance into the site. The property includes the former care home building, which is a mix of two- and single- storey structures with some ancillary buildings and all set in landscaped areas.

A public footpath runs along the southern boundary of the property and thus forms part of the property being offered for sale. The Purchaser will be required to retain this as a public footpath. It is shown in blue on the site plan.

Expressions of interest are invited for the site. Expressions of interest should reflect the Development Criteria set out below which includes the provision of 8 x 1 bed social care units.

The bids should also include:

- Details of the developer
- A resume of previous schemes
- Indicative draft scheme for the site with accompanying narrative demonstrating how the Development Criteria will be met
- Timescale for the scheme
- Price offered
- Confirmation of funding

Expressions of interest are to be submitted via email to Joanne High () with the subject being "Ivybridge Town Council Proposal" by noon on 30th June 2023.

A data pack is available for full details of Ivybridge Town Council's selection process and further title information and documentation.

Development Criteria:

Ivybridge Town Council has the following requirements for the development scheme:

- The delivery of 8 units of "independent living" accommodation for people with learning disabilities.
- The independent living units should be one bedroom and be ready to receive suitable technology to enable them to be future proofed.

### For the entire site:-

- The scheme should retain and enhance the existing character of the area, retaining existing trees of any merit within the development, where possible.
- A BS 5837 Tree Survey is required to determine which trees are worthy of retention. Category A and B trees should be protected and retained.
- There should be no loss of amenity for the existing nearby properties as a result of the proposed scheme, which must be a "good neighbour" with the maximum height of the development taking into account its setting and impact on local residents.
- The Property is currently accessed by pedestrians and vehicles from Brook Road and retention of this access is preferred.

Informal pre-application discussions have been held with South Hams District Council regarding the principle of development but no planning application has been submitted. Discussions to date have been on the basis of a maximum of 38 residential units including 6 independent living units for people with moderate learning disabilities and a 3-bed learning/training house. Options include reuse of part of the existing buildings but complete site clearance is a possibility.
