This is a cleared, very large freehold town-centre plot with planning permission for a three-storey, 34-apartment scheme. Permission includes communal gardens, external amenity space, car parking and bike stores; the consented scheme offers a mix from studio to two-bedroom units and sits directly adjacent to a pedestrian link between Barons Quay and Sainsbury’s. The site area is c.2,701 sq m (29,073 sq ft) and the sale particulars list the price as 1 (as provided).
The location delivers clear access to rail and bus links and immediate town-centre amenities—Barons Quay, supermarkets and local services are all within easy walking distance, supporting rental demand and resident convenience. No Section 106 or CIL has been identified against the consent, which may simplify delivery and cost modelling for a developer or investor.
Important material considerations are straightforward and must be weighed by buyers: the wider area is classified as very deprived with very high local crime rates and constrained renter demographics. Broadband speeds are reported as very slow. These factors will influence rental values, sales pricing and management costs and should be reflected in feasibility and finance assumptions.
This opportunity will suit a cash-ready developer or an investor focused on proactive asset and estate management who can deliver the consented build, address letability through design and management, and factor in mitigation for local socio-economic challenges. The scheme’s central location and planning status reduce planning risk, but on-the-ground operational and market risks are significant and should be fully investigated.
