Cleared, consented urban plot near Sunderland centre and transport links.
Full planning consent for nine three-bed terraced dwellings (granted 07/04/2022)
This cleared urban infill site on Douro Terrace benefits from full planning consent (granted 7 April 2022) for nine three-bedroom terraced homes with associated access and parking. The plot is level, very large overall and ready for development; services are understood to be connected and the site is offered with vacant possession and freehold ownership. The proposed houses are modern brick townhouses with pitched roofs, rear glazed bays/balconies and small private gardens.
The location is highly accessible: about a 10-minute walk to Sunderland city centre, train station and The Bridges shopping centre, with frequent buses on Douro Terrace and quick road links via the A1231 to the A19. The immediate catchment includes Sunderland University and a mix of students and professionals, supporting demand for rental or owner-occupier markets and offering flexibility in exit strategy (sale or let).
Notable risks are plain: the area records high crime levels and is within a deprived ward, which will affect tenant/owner perception and some financing or insurance terms. The site footprint suits a short terrace development rather than large gardens; individual private outdoor spaces are small to average. Buyers should review the full planning drawings and the planning application folder for elevations, reports and technical details prior to exchange.
