Summary - Derby Hills House Farm, The Common, Melbourne, DERBY DE73 8DH
1 bed 1 bath Land
Conversion-ready rural site with strong village appeal and countryside views.
Full planning permission for conversion to three dwellings (Lot 1)
A rare brownfield redevelopment site on the edge of Melbourne, offered freehold with vacant possession. The plot extends to approximately 0.52 acres (0.21 ha) and comprises two substantial agricultural/industrial buildings, hardstanding and yard space with open countryside views to the rear. Lot 1 benefits from full planning permission to convert the existing building into three dwellings; Lot 2 has scope for two further dwellings subject to planning.
The site is practical for a small residential scheme or mixed rural development and already sits within a very affluent, low-crime village location with excellent mobile signal and fast broadband. Vehicular access is provided from The Common; there is existing garage/parking provision and surrounding arable land and woodland contribute to the setting.
Buyers should expect a refurbishment and conversion project: buildings are agricultural/industrial in character and will require substantial renovation for residential use. The site is a former animal farm with areas of scrub and functional landscaping; services and detailed site surveys will be required and any additional dwellings on Lot 2 are subject to planning consent.
This opportunity suits developers or investors targeting small-scale village conversions where planning permission and a rural setting add value. The property offers immediate potential (Lot 1 consent) alongside further upside if additional approvals are secured for Lot 2.
