Summary - Land At Brookhouse Lane, Featherstone, West Midlands, WV10 WV10 7FJ
1 bed 1 bath Residential Development
Semi-rural development parcel with proposed allocation for ~35 homes; Green Belt constraint on part.
Approximately 3.03 hectares (7.97 acres) of agricultural, overgrown land
A substantial semi-rural parcel extending to approximately 3.03 hectares (7.97 acres) on the western edge of Featherstone, offering a medium-sized development opportunity immediately adjacent to an existing residential estate. Around 1.6 hectares (3.95 acres) of the site is safeguarded under the South Staffordshire Core Strategy for longer-term development and is proposed in the emerging Local Plan as an allocation for a minimum of 35 dwellings (policy SA3). The remaining land lies in the Birmingham Green Belt as an open space buffer (policy SAD7), so any scheme will need careful planning consideration.
The site is level to gently undulating with mature hedgerow and scattered trees, and has immediate frontage to a local access road with practical access potential. Junction 1 of the M54 is approximately 0.5 miles away, providing strong road links to Wolverhampton, Birmingham and Stoke-on-Trent. Typical services are likely to be available in the adjacent built-up area but none are currently connected; enquiries and technical surveys will be required to confirm capacity and costs.
This is primarily a development/investment proposition for a buyer comfortable with planning risk and site preparation work. The land is overgrown and un-farmed; remediation, drainage and services provision will be necessary. The emerging allocation creates a route to residential use but the Green Belt designation across part of the red line imposes constraint and will influence phasing, design and deliverability.
Local amenities include several good-rated primary schools in Featherstone and fast broadband and excellent mobile signal. The surrounding area is semi-rural with open countryside views to the west and south, making the site attractive for suburban housing if planning and infrastructure align. Buyers should allow for highway, services and ecological surveys, and factor in the impact of local crime levels and tenure uncertainties when assessing viability.
