A striking detached former Methodist church on Church Street, offered at auction with an approved conversion to a single dwelling (planning ref: 25/00677/FU). The building extends to around 2,600 sq ft with a vaulted Great Hall, high arched windows and several ancillary rooms — ideal for a buyer seeking a distinctive residential conversion or redevelopment project in Woodlesford.
Current planning approval covers partial demolition and construction of a detached garage, giving the purchaser a clear route to change of use. The site sits in a comfortable, affluent area with excellent connectivity to Leeds and local amenities, schools and the village rail link.
Buyers should note this is a modern-method auction sale: there is a starting bid, an undisclosed reserve, and a non-refundable reservation fee (4.5% of the purchase price subject to minimum). The building requires refurbishment and adaptation to residential use; some parts remain dated and the property is being sold chain-free with no vehicle access and on-street parking only.
This is a realistic opportunity for an experienced developer, investor or private buyer with planning experience who wants a prominent, characterful property with substantial internal volume and an existing approved conversion scheme.
