A substantial cleared development site extending to 3.85 ha (9.5 acres) with outline planning consent for up to 120 dwellings (TP ref: RB2023/1324). The flat, former industrial plot sits immediately by Midland Road and is well located for Rotherham town centre, public transport (Rotherham Interchange ~300m) and Junction 34 of the M1 (approx. 2km), making it suitable for a range of housing tenures and build programmes.
The permission is accompanied by a Section 106 Agreement and the site is liable for Community Infrastructure Levy (Residential Zone 3: £15/sq.m.). There is no requirement for on-site affordable housing due to Vacant Building Credit. The land has been elected for VAT — budget for VAT, S106 and CIL when assessing viability.
The surrounding area mixes residential and commercial uses with convenience retail (Tesco Express, Aldi within 400m) and several primary and secondary schools within 800m. The site’s proximity to ongoing town centre regeneration (Forge Island c.600m) adds long-term amenity upside, but the immediate neighbourhood faces high crime levels and very high deprivation, which will influence marketing, tenure mix and specification.
This opportunity suits developers or investors targeting a medium-density residential scheme in a well-connected urban location. A full technical pack is available; purchasers should review the S106 obligations, CIL liability and VAT position and allow for remediation and design work to address local context and market requirements.
