A large freehold brownfield plot in Mixenden, Halifax, offered with planning permission (Calderdale Council ref 21/00780/FUL) for two retail units and two flats. The site is cleared for viewing and benefits from no identified flood risk and strong digital connectivity — excellent mobile signal and fast broadband make it a practical small-scale development site.
The land is currently derelict and overgrown and will require clearing and site preparation prior to development. The surrounding area is a hard-pressed, very deprived neighbourhood with high local crime; these factors will influence rental levels, tenant demand and the retail prospects on site. Buyers should factor in remediation, security and possible enhancement works to make the scheme viable.
This lot is offered for sale by online auction, freehold, and is best suited to local property investors, small developers or builders who can work within the existing planning consent or adapt proposals with the local planning authority. The permission and full plans are available on Calderdale Council planning (ref 21/00780/FUL).
