This is a substantial village-centre landholding in Irwell Vale, offered as a whole and already income-producing in part. The freehold includes cottages (titles LA871759, LA769583) held on 999‑year ground leases producing a total ground rent of £25 per annum. The main parcel extends to roughly 2.012 acres (0.81 ha) and is largely open, with access roads and a rural setting beside stream, meadow and woodland.
The site presents clear development or land-banking potential for an investor or developer familiar with village centre schemes. Access is by unadopted roads and purchasers should verify deeds and plans: the vendor’s paperwork indicates freehold ownership but prospective buyers must rely on inspection and legal disclosure. Broadband speeds are very slow; mobile signal is excellent.
Important constraints and risks are recorded plainly: the site is in a high flooding risk area, and parts of the access are unadopted which may transfer maintenance or adoption costs to a purchaser. Tenure for some elements is recorded as leases of 999 years; overall tenure is stated as unknown and buyers should confirm via legal due diligence. The parcel’s rural character and large plot size suit schemes that respect the conservation of surroundings and local planning context.
For investors: this asset offers immediate low-value income from ground rent alongside longer-term redevelopment or disposal options. For buyers considering redevelopment, undertake flood risk assessment, consult local planning, and inspect title plans to confirm boundaries, rights of way and responsibilities for the unadopted access roads.
