A substantial freehold development plot in Pitt Street, Barnsley, offered with full planning permission (Ref: 2024/0616, approved March 2025) for two detached single-storey bungalows. The site totals approximately 12,281 sq ft and sits in a residential pocket close to shops, schools and public transport, making it well suited to small developers or self-builders targeting strong local demand for modern, single-storey homes.
The vendor has previously explored alternative layouts — including a larger executive-style bungalow with a detached triple garage — so the plot offers flexibility for alternative schemes subject to planning approval. Services information supplied indicates mains gas heating, double glazing specification and an open-plan new-build layout; the proposal includes private garden space and garage parking for the dwellings.
Buyers should note the local context: the area is classified as deprived with a high crime score and an industrious, transitioning neighbourhood profile. These factors will influence resale values and lettings but can be offset by the strong demand locally for modern homes and the practical benefits of single-storey accommodation. The site is vacant land and will require full construction works and associated costs — purchasers must budget for build, connections, and any further planning applications for alternative schemes.
Nearby primary and secondary schools have Good Ofsted ratings, and public transport and local amenities are within easy reach. Flooding risk is reported as nil. This plot is an opportunity for buyers seeking a sizeable, flexible site with approved consent in an accessible Barnsley location, provided they are prepared to manage the build process and the neighbourhood considerations noted above.
