Amlets Lane Cranleigh Surrey A Unique Development Opportunity in the heart of Surrey
Cranleigh Cranleigh has become a highly desirable place to live, in the heart of the Surrey countryside, yet only a short commute in to Guildford and London. The village offers a good selection of independent shops and cafes as well as having the usual high street chains. There is also a weekly market and a monthly Farmers Market. These combined with events including the Cranleigh Carnival, the Fun Day in June and the Cranleigh Classic Car Show make for a very pleasant environment in which to live. Amlets Lane is beautifully located between the prestigious Cranleigh School and the Cranleigh Golf & Country Club just north of the village centre. 2

The Opportunity Amlets Park has been conceived and promoted by the award winning team behind Land & Partners who specialise in promoting high quality planning and design that respects the local context. The Roberts family who own the site want to secure a quality development that will be cherished and valued. The outline planning permission granted for up to 125 dwellings utilises the existing field parcels, which extend to 13.15 hectares (32 acres), to create different character areas and the illustrative design proposes medium to higher densities on the southern parcels, moving to a low density on the northern parcels adjacent to the existing neighbouring plots along Amlets Lane. The stream that runs through the centre of the site will be connected to new open water areas which provide the drainage for the site and become a focal point. There is a public footpath along this route that connects the large areas of open space and parkland as they flow across the western and northern edges of the site as shown on the Framework plan. These areas provide a very pleasant and spacious setting for the new homes. With the Surrey Hills, a designated Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty nearby and Cranleigh village centre approximately 1 mile to the south this presents an exclusive site and a rare opportunity. 4 We are seeking a quality developer that shares this vision and will deliver.
