Large plot with approved planning and strong GDV potential.
Planning permission for 3x four‑bed and 1x three‑bed dwellings
A substantial corner plot with planning approval makes this property a clear development prospect. The existing five‑bedroom detached bungalow occupies a large plot on Greenside Way and comes with full planning permission (DC/22/67156) until June 2028 for three four‑bed and one three‑bed detached homes to the rear. Estimated GDV circa £1.8M+ presents upside for a developer or investor prepared to deliver the scheme.
The current house is mid‑20th century, double glazed and gas central heated, but requires renovation and modernisation. It has five bedrooms, a single bathroom and off‑street parking; the bungalow could be lived in while works progress or cleared to start the approved build. Note walls are assumed to be uninsulated cavity and glazing predates 2002, so energy upgrades will be needed to meet current standards.
Location strengths include proximity to local schools (including good and outstanding rated options), bus routes and fast broadband. The wider area is a hard‑pressed, mixed neighbourhood with higher levels of deprivation, so buyers should budget for sales/rental positioning and possible management of local build disruption.
This opportunity suits a cash buyer, small local developer or investor targeting a near‑term redevelopment. The planning permission and large plot are the principal value drivers; the property itself requires investment and careful costed due diligence on build‑costs, title and service connections before purchase.
