A rare development parcel of approximately 0.59 hectares (1.45 acres) with planning consent for five detached four-bedroom homes. The consented scheme totals about 650.2 m2 (6,994 ft2) of gross development floor area, giving a clear route to delivery for a small residential development in Heckmondwike.
The site is accessed from Cemetery Road and slopes gently from south to north, opening toward the neighbouring cemetery and allotments. Local services, schools and public transport lie within a mile, and the plot benefits from excellent mobile signal and fast broadband — useful for sales and modern home specifications.
Material considerations are straightforward: the area is within a very deprived ward and records high crime rates, and the local population profile includes constrained renters which may influence sales mix and pricing. Tenure details are unknown and will require clarification during due diligence. The land is currently overgrown and will need site clearance and infrastructure works before construction.
For a developer or investor, this is a permissioned, mid‑sized suburban site with immediate delivery potential and scope for specification-led homes. The setting adjacent to green space and nearby schools supports family housing, but returns should be modelled against local demand, market values and costs for remediation, services and security measures.
