Approved plans for two flats with parking, balcony and city views — S106 applies.
Full planning permission for 2 x 2-bedroom apartments
A rare vacant plot in Upper Bangor with full planning permission for two generous 2-bedroom apartments, private parking, rear garden and balconies with city and distant sea views. The site sits in a well-connected, walkable location close to Bangor train station, frequent bus services and Holyhead Road, giving easy access to Anglesey and regional routes — a clear advantage for rental demand from commuters and students.
The plot is compact (approx. 25m x 8m / 200m²) but extremely large in overall scale terms for the address and suited to a two-flat layout already approved. Services and fast broadband are available and the elevated position offers light, outlook and characterful surroundings with historic terraces nearby. Planning consent is in place, which reduces pre-build risk and speeds delivery for a developer or buy-to-let investor.
Material considerations: a Section 106 agreement requires a £35,000 contribution to the council in lieu of affordable housing and the local area records high crime rates and very high deprivation, which will affect management, lettings profile and potentially insurance costs. The plot is small, so design and build must work within constraints. Buyers should allow budget for construction, site works and the S106 payment, and carry out their own surveys and local market due diligence.
For an investor or small developer comfortable working in urban, high-demand rental locations, this is a pragmatic development opportunity with planning already secured and clear commuter and student demand. It suits those who can manage the S106 cost and local area considerations to deliver two well-specified flats with parking and appealing views.
