Summary - 41 WOMERSLEY ROAD WF11 0DB
5 bed 1 bath Land
Freehold 0.75-acre site with consent for mixed homes.
Planning permission granted for five dwellings (Ref: 22/01778/FUL)
This site combines an existing five-bedroom semi with a very large 0.75-acre plot and granted planning permission (Ref: 22/01778/FUL) for five new dwellings. The approved scheme mixes three- and four-bedroom house types, each with private gardens and parking, offering a clear route to delivery for a small development or phased sale strategy. Freehold tenure and mains services on site reduce early utility risk.
The existing house dates from the early 1900s and will require refurbishment if retained; the plot and permission are the primary value drivers. The local area shows signs of deprivation, so pricing, tenure mix and specification should be planned to match local demand. Nearby schools include two rated Outstanding and one Requires Improvement, and transport links to Leeds and Wakefield support commuter and family markets.
Practical factors: double glazing and mains gas heating are present, there's no flood risk, and broadband and mobile signals are strong. Planning was approved on 30 April 2024 for Plots 1–5 (details in application 22/01778/FUL). Buyers should allow budget for site preparation, construction costs, and local market positioning. Viewings recommended for serious developers and investors to assess access, boundaries and existing accommodation.
This is a straightforward development opportunity for an investor or small housebuilder seeking a deliverable brownfield site with consented housing mix. Consideration should be given to local sales values and construction budgets before exchange.
