Utilities/infrastructure connections need confirmation
A substantial, very large building plot on Pilsley Road with planning permission (ref: 23/01097/FL) for five new homes — two- and three-bedroom semi-detached and detached houses. The sale includes five plots with the option to purchase two additional plots, offering scope for phased development or resale of individual plots. Driveways and south-facing gardens are part of the approved layouts, improving appeal to families and private buyers once built.
The site sits in a quiet village setting with good local primary and secondary schools rated Good, fast broadband and excellent mobile signal — practical local infrastructure for modern homes. Off-street parking is included in the plans; roads and basic services will need confirming with the council and utilities before construction. Freehold tenure simplifies ownership and transfer for a developer or investor.
Important considerations: the wider area is classified as “industrious hardship” with local demographics described as “endeavouring social renters,” and the neighbourhood records average crime and higher-than-average deprivation. These factors will affect achievable sales values and letting demand and should be weighed into viability and funding assumptions. There is no flood risk reported.
This is a straightforward development opportunity for a builder or investor prepared to manage local market constraints and to complete the infrastructure connections. Full planning details are available from North East Derbyshire District Council under reference 23/01097/FL.
