A rare development opportunity in Lostock with approved planning to build a bespoke detached house of approximately 3,150 sq ft (Ref: 17927/24). The site occupies a substantial 0.24-acre plot opposite Bolton Golf Club, with open views and a large rear garden. The existing two-bedroom bungalow provides immediate sheltered accommodation while works or demolition proceed.
The parcel appeals to self-builders, developers and investors who value location and scale. Approved planning (11 June 2024) removes a major planning barrier and accelerates project delivery. Existing features include a long driveway, detached double garage with power, extensive lower-level basement storage and main services on site (mains gas, electric, water, sewerage).
Buyers should note material facts: the property is leasehold (999-year original term with c.894 years remaining) and sits in Council Tax Band E (above average running costs). The bungalow dates from c.1930–1949 and will require refurbishment or demolition to realise full potential; walls are cavity-built with no known insulation. The sale is offered with no onward chain which may suit a quick start to redevelopment.
This opportunity combines a desirable Lostock address, excellent transport links and a large plot with planning consent already granted — a clear value driver for the right buyer prepared to manage renovation or build costs.
