Auction lot with planning potential in established residential area.
Freehold plot extending to approx 1.17 acres including roads
A 1.17-acre freehold parcel on the south side of Water Lane, offered at auction and potentially suitable for speculative residential development (subject to planning consents). The plot includes land between 24 and 26 Crossbrook Way and sits within a predominantly residential neighbourhood with modern post‑war housing and good local services.
This site offers clear development potential for an investor or small‑scale developer prepared to obtain the necessary consents. Practical positives include freehold title, no reported flood risk, excellent mobile signal and fast broadband — useful for marketing new homes and attracting buyers or tenants.
Material considerations are straightforward: the lot will be sold at auction with immediate deposit and buyer fees, and purchasers must complete identity and funding checks. The area is described as relatively deprived, which may affect values and likely end‑user demand; interested parties should consult Rochdale planning officers before bidding and carry out full site due diligence, including title and services checks.
Nearby amenities include primary and secondary schools rated Good by Ofsted, local healthcare, bus links and community facilities, supporting family housing. Finance is available for the lot, but bidders must be prepared for the contractual obligations and auction costs set out in the legal pack.
