Prime central site with clear potential for a residential scheme.
0.19-acre (approx) freehold plot with Wakefield Road and Kinder Street frontage
Previously granted permission for 5 x 4-bed townhouses (lapsed March 2024)
Being sold at auction — buyer to secure new planning consent
Enclosed but currently overgrown; clearance and site investigation needed
Located 0.25 miles north of Stalybridge town centre, near amenities and transport
Area classified as very deprived — may affect sales values and funding
Very low recorded crime; excellent mobile signal and fast broadband
Sold as a development opportunity; buyers should check contamination and services
A substantial 0.19-acre freehold site in Stalybridge, offered at auction with genuine redevelopment potential. The plot has frontages to Wakefield Road and Kinder Street and sits just 0.25 miles north of the town centre, providing easy access to shops, schools and public transport links.
Planning consent for 5 x four-bedroom townhouses was previously granted (Application No: 20/01055/FUL) on 19 March 2021 but lapsed in March 2024. Any purchase should assume a new planning application will be required; the earlier approval does indicate the site has previously met local planning standards for residential development.
The land is currently enclosed and overgrown and will require clearance and site investigation prior to building. The area is classified as very deprived, which can affect sales values and development economics, but the location benefits from very low recorded crime, excellent mobile signal and fast broadband — useful for modern housing demand.
This lot will appeal to developers and investors able to manage the planning process and carry initial remediation and clearance works. Buyers should commission their own surveys and checks (contamination, services, boundary and planning advice) before bidding at auction.
