Summary - SHIPLEY COUNTRY PARK VISITORS CENTRE, SLACK LANE DE75 7GX
1 bed 1 bath Land
Rare 22‑acre parcel with potential for bespoke executive homes or institutional use.
22-acre freehold site centred on Coppice Lake with two islands and water frontage
An exceptional 22‑acre freehold parcel centred on Coppice Lake in Shipley Park, offered at £1,500,000. Heavily wooded with mature trees, two islands and extensive water frontage, the site provides rare lakeside privacy and generous plot sizes within easy reach of Derby, Nottingham and the M1 (J25). Planning was previously pursued for a single grand 25,305 sq ft house and ancillary garage, and the cleared site also has developable land of circa 1.5 acres suitable for up to four substantial executive homes.
This opportunity will appeal to developers and private buyers seeking a high‑value, bespoke scheme: options include one flagship ‘super home’, subdivision into four six‑bed executive dwellings, or alternative community‑use conversions such as a private school or care facility. The setting adjoins 700 acres of country parkland and offers strong amenity value — lakeside views, woodland recreation and nearby good schools.
Buyers should note material points before viewing: existing buildings have been demolished and services, connections and ground conditions have not been tested or guaranteed. No live planning consent is confirmed here — previous planning was sought but purchasers must rely on their own enquiries and submissions. The site sits in a deprived local area classification which may affect planning policy considerations and grant availability. Flood risk is recorded as none.
In short: a rare, large-scale waterside site with high upside for the right purchaser prepared to commission surveys, secure services and progress a planning strategy. Early technical due diligence and pre-application engagement with local planning officers are recommended to refine the development programme.
