A substantial residential development site of about 6.5 acres in Clifton village, offered with full planning permission for 35 two‑storey 3, 4 and 5‑bed homes. The permission (ref. 14/02140/FUL) has non‑material amendments and a number of discharge of condition approvals; planning is understood to have been commenced. The plot’s rural setting and proximity to Morpeth and the A1 make it well suited to a market‑led housing scheme targeting buyers who value countryside living with easy regional road links.
Significant preparatory works have already been undertaken: tree clearance, soil excavation and site earthworks, a Phase I/II geo‑environmental assessment, and remediation strategy are in the data room. A mine entry investigation identified two adits and one mineshaft; the mineshaft has been capped (pending Coal Authority sign‑off) and further remedial items are noted in the remediation validation report. Foundation designs indicate a mix of strip, trench fill and vibro/piled solutions will be required depending on final levels.
Practical considerations include confirmation of service connections (connections understood to exist but buyers should verify), remaining remediation works per the technical reports, and the site’s greenbelt location which carries planning sensitivities despite the existing permission. The off‑site affordable housing contribution of £200,000 has been paid. The freehold site is offered with vacant possession and a data room provides full technical and planning documentation for due diligence.
