Summary - 9, MELROSE WAY, CHORLEY PR7 3EX
1 bed 1 bath Land
Large, well‑serviced rear plot with countryside views for a family build.
Outline permission for detached four-bedroom house granted May 2025
A generous rear garden plot in an established Chorley neighbourhood, offering direct planning momentum for a family-sized home. Outline planning permission for a detached four-bedroom house has been granted, and Planning Permission in Principle also exists for two semi‑detached houses, giving clear options for a single home or a small development. The plot sits quietly behind existing properties with pleasant views towards Rivington and easy access to local shops, transport links and several highly rated primary schools.
Practical advantages are already in place: the site will be sold freehold, mains services (electricity, gas, water and sewer) are understood to be available, and a Biodiversity Net Gain report has been prepared. Buyers proposing self-build schemes may be eligible for exemption from the Community Infrastructure Levy, reducing up-front costs for owner‑builders. The plot measures approximately 435 sq m, providing room for a sizeable private garden and off-street parking subject to detailed design and consent.
There are access and neighbour considerations to note. Entry to the site is along a shared accessway running behind adjoining properties off Southdowns Road, so purchasers should factor in access arrangements and any required agreements. Copies of the planning consents and the biodiversity report are available for review to confirm conditions and requirements before committing.
This opportunity suits buyers seeking a self-build family home or a small residential scheme close to town amenities and good schools. The combination of planning permissions, services availability and tranquil outlook makes this plot a practical starting point for a tailored new home in Chorley.
