A cleared, fenced freehold parcel of around 1.0 acre formerly occupied by St Thomas' Church, offered with full planning permission for 17 houses. The consent (6 x 3-bed semis, 10 x 2-bed semis, 1 x 3-bed detached) was granted on 19 December 2024 and provides a ready development brief with road access from Pallister Avenue and Cherwell Terrace. Services and vehicle access appear deliverable from the adjacent highway network.
The site sits in a high-density suburban pocket of Brambles Farm, close to the A1085 Longlands Road and local amenities including Cleveland Retail Park. Local schools include several primary schools rated Good or Outstanding and a further-secondary provision, making the homes suitable for young families in the area.
Investors should note material local challenges: the ward is very deprived, crime levels are high and the wider neighbourhood is described as young hard-pressed families and challenged white communities. The planning permission expires in December 2027, so purchasers must factor in timescales for commencement. The southern and northern halves are accessed separately and the immediate west has recent social housing development.
Overall this is a clear development opportunity for a small residential scheme with consented layouts and straightforward frontage to existing roads. The combination of a build-ready consent and fast digital connectivity suits a developer or investor prepared to work in a challenging but settled urban market.
