Central corner site sold at online auction with development potential.
Freehold plot in central Walkden, adjacent to Tesco petrol station
A compact freehold parcel centrally located in Walkden, immediately adjacent to a Tesco petrol filling station and close to Campbell Way/Ashton Field Drive. The site is offered at online auction and may suit garden extension, small-scale development or other uses subject to planning consent. Fast broadband, average mobile signal and very low local crime are practical advantages for future uses.
This lot is aimed at buyers who understand auction purchase obligations and the need to check planning with Salford Council before bidding. There are immediate additional costs: a 2.5% administration fee (minimum £2,500 inc VAT), a buyer’s premium of £900 inc VAT, and any disbursements listed in the legal pack. Finance is available but successful bidders must supply ID and source-of-funds information under AML rules.
Important negatives are factual: the wider area is recorded as very deprived with a “hard-pressed ethnic mix” classification and local area described as “hampered neighbourhoods”, which may affect resale values or planning outlook. There is no flood risk and the title is freehold (Title GM448872), but no uplift in permitted use is guaranteed—prospective buyers must obtain their own planning advice and view the legal pack for title or other defects.
For an investor or developer prepared to carry out due diligence, this centrally sited, accessible plot offers a low-entry freehold opportunity in a major conurbation. Bidders should be ready to pay the deposit and fees immediately on exchange and accept the contractual commitment that comes with auction purchase.
