A rare greenfield development parcel at the edge of Gregson Lane with Permission in Principle for 5–7 dwellings. The 0.64 acre (approx. 27,878 sq ft) site is freehold, mainly open grassland, and sits with attractive views over surrounding agricultural land — a convenient 4.5 miles from Preston and close to M65/M6 links, making it suitable for commuters and local families.
Permission in Principle was granted by Chorley Borough Council (appeal decision APP/D2320/W/23/3331978, 2 July 2024) and allows between five and seven homes, subject to approval of technical details (reserved matters). The site is semi-vegetated with mature boundary trees and adjoins existing residential properties to the northwest, providing clear access from Gregson Lane.
This plot suits developers or investors seeking a small, low-density residential scheme in a sought-after semi-rural location. Important considerations include submitting and securing technical details approval, arranging on-site infrastructure and services (drainage, access visibility, utilities), and potential tree/landscaping constraints around the site edges.
In short: strong locational attributes and a confirmed policy-level consent reduce planning risk, but the buyer should budget and plan for detailed approvals, infrastructure works, and technical surveys before starting construction.
