This 6.23-acre freehold site at the former Bairds Malt on Springfield Road offers a large-scale redevelopment canvas close to Grantham’s transport links and town centre amenities. The existing Maltings buildings amount to c.72,980 sq ft, with a prominent mill reaching an equivalent 44m height precedent that supports proposals for tall mixed-use schemes. A planning report, desktop environmental and geotechnical reports, and a demolition quotation are available to interested parties.
The site is presented for sale by online auction as an unconditional purchase only; conditional bids will not be considered. Buildings are likely to be demolished and the planning report indicates potential for employment, residential, hotel/leisure or retail/food & beverage uses, or a mixed scheme. Guide price is £1.4m; VAT status to be confirmed. Business rates are not applicable; each party is responsible for their own legal fees.
Material considerations: the area has high recorded crime and the Maltings are substantial industrial concrete structures likely requiring demolition and site remediation. Broadband speeds are average; mobile signal is excellent. The surrounding neighbourhood is transitioning from traditional employment uses to a more mixed-use character, which supports redevelopment prospects but also brings change and planning scrutiny.
This opportunity suits developers or investors able to proceed unconditionally at auction and manage demolition, remediation and planning. The combination of size, central location and a 44m height precedent creates scope for a significant, value-add scheme, subject to planning and site works.
