This site offers a clear developer opportunity with full planning consent for seven homes (four semi-detached and three detached) on approximately 0.69 acres. Positioned close to Golcar village centre, the plot benefits from strong commuter links to Huddersfield and the M62 corridor, fast broadband and excellent mobile signal — practical strengths for sales or rental marketing.
The existing building is derelict and partially demolished; the site will require clearance, structural remediation and rebuild work before construction can start. Several investigative reports were prepared for the planning process, but reliance on those documents will require the consent of the party who commissioned them and fresh due diligence is recommended.
Freehold tenure and planning references are in place (2022/60/90469/W & 2025/44/90314/W), reducing consenting risk for an experienced developer. The location sits in an affluent, low-crime suburb with good local schools, shops and amenities — an attractive setting for family housing or resale to owner-occupiers.
Buyers should budget for demolition, site preparation and potential remediation costs, and confirm all technical reports before exchange. For a developer able to manage a derelict site, this presents a relatively swift route to deliver seven houses in a well-connected residential area.
