Outline permission for 104 homes on a vacant 8.2-acre former industrial site.
Freehold site of approximately 8.2 acres
A substantial freehold development parcel of approximately 8.2 acres with outline planning permission for 104 dwellings (86 houses and 18 apartments). The cleared former industrial site occupies a prominent edge location in Halifax and includes one surviving red-brick former forge/engine house. The site is vacant and bounded by further greenbelt land outside the proposed development area.
This opportunity suits residential developers or investors seeking a large, ready-to-progress scheme in a major conurbation. The grant of outline permission materially de-risks land assembly and quantum, but any purchaser should plan for reserved matters, discharging conditions and possible Section 106 obligations. Further development capacity may exist subject to requisite consents.
Known constraints include the site's industrial past: potential contamination or remediation works may be required and the remaining brick structure will need assessment for retention or demolition. Broadband speeds are reported slow despite excellent mobile signal. Flood risk is recorded as none; local crime and area deprivation are average.
Local amenities include several good-rated primary and secondary schools nearby and open meadowland adjacent, which supports delivery of family housing. This plot's scale and outline consent provide clear development upside, balanced by practical on-site remediation and consent work required before construction.
