Central LU2 site with strong transport links and redevelopment upside.
Planning permission granted for three-storey house (Ref: 18/00866/FUL) on 14 Aug 2018 — verify current status
This small freehold plot on High Town Road comes with planning permission for a three-storey house (Application Ref: 18/00866/FUL, approved 14 Aug 2018). It sits within walking distance of the mainline station, local shops and a wide range of amenities, offering strong rental and resale demand from commuters and nearby students.
The already-approved scheme proposes a ground-floor reception and kitchen, upper-floor bedrooms and a second-floor private balcony, plus a rear courtyard garden. Broadband is fast and mobile signal is excellent — practical advantages for modern tenants or homeowners. The site will be sold at auction and is offered as a new-build development opportunity on a small plot.
Buyers should note practical constraints: the plot is small and in a dense Victorian terrace area with known parking difficulties. The planning permission was granted in 2018; purchasers must confirm current planning status and any outstanding conditions with the local authority. The surrounding area scores high for deprivation, which can affect rental yields and resale values in parts of LU2.
This is a straightforward opportunity for a developer or investor prepared to follow through on planning, build to the approved specification, and manage a compact urban site. Due diligence is essential — consult surveyors and the legal pack for title details and any restrictive covenants.
