Condition 2 states: The occupation of the dwelling shall be limited to a person solely or mainly working or last working in agriculture, forestry or an angling business in the locality or a widow or widower of such a person and any resident dependants.Brook Lodge was granted planning permission on the 4th June 2007 as holiday chalet accommodation to existing fishing facility at Chad lakes. (Reference CD.7257/K.)The vendors have requested that all parties are specifically made aware of the occupancy condition so as to avoid disappointment in the event that they do not comply and are unable to buy the property.
