Prominent freehold site with two pre-appproved residential schemes and strong transport links.
Prominent corner freehold site, c.0.19 hectares (0.48 acres)
A prominent corner freehold site in Stockland Green offering a substantial redevelopment opportunity close to strong transport links. The former six-storey bingo hall sits on approximately 0.19 hectares (0.48 acres) with 20,715 sq ft of gross internal area and immediate visibility from a busy five-road junction.
The vendor has secured two pre-application approved design options: a HAPPI-compliant sheltered housing scheme for over-55s (44–46 apartments with communal facilities) and a 51–55 unit build-to-rent proposal (mix of 1–3 bed NDSS-compliant units). Copies of the plans and pre-app responses are available to interested parties, making this an attractive site for retirement, institutional or private rental developers.
The location benefits from frequent bus routes, proximity (c.1.5km) to Erdington rail station and local amenities such as shops, pubs and schools. The area’s wide tree-lined boulevards and setback buildings provide a calmer streetscape despite the urban setting.
Material considerations for buyers: the surrounding area is classified as very deprived with high local crime levels, which will influence lettability and social housing demand. Prospective purchasers must satisfy themselves on ground conditions, contamination, and any further planning requirements. Offers are invited on a subject-to-planning basis; VAT is not applicable.
