An elevated 1.253-hectare (3.096-acre) parcel allocated in the South Lakeland Local Plan for approximately 28 dwellings, offering a clear development brief and strong market appeal. The site’s southeast aspect and raised position deliver panoramic, uninterrupted views across Morecambe Bay to the Arnside & Silverdale AONB, a notable selling point for family homes or higher-value market housing. Good local facilities in Grange-over-Sands, nearby rail links and proximity to the Lake District and Cartmel add leisure and commuting attractions.
The land is broadly rectangular, gently sloping and currently permanent pasture with established stone walling and mature hedgerows. Allocation in the adopted local plan reduces plan-making risk, but prospective purchasers must satisfy themselves on ground conditions, access, drainage and the cost/availability of utility connections from Kents Bank Road. Boundary maintenance and any rights, easements or restrictions will transfer with the title.
Practical considerations include the need for detailed site investigation, a drainage and slope design response, and careful layout to protect bay and AONB views. Broadband speeds are currently slow despite excellent mobile reception. Overall, this is a large, well-located development opportunity with clear planning allocation and strong location-driven demand, suited to builders or investors prepared to progress technical work and infrastructure connections.
