Five-bedroom period house on a one-acre plot—major renovation or redevelopment opportunity.
One-acre private plot with gated single-track approach
Set on an unusually large one-acre plot in a sought-after Prestwich location, this substantial five-bedroom detached property offers rare scale and scope close to local amenities and transport. The house retains period character — high Victorian ceilings, stained glass and wood panelling — but requires a full refurbishment throughout and has just one bathroom, so it suits buyers prepared to renovate or redevelop.
The site has genuine development potential: planning consent was previously granted (now lapsed) for seven substantial dwellings and further proposed plans are included in the legal pack. Any purchaser seeking to pursue redevelopment should make enquiries with Bury Council before bidding. The sale will be by unconditional timed auction with binding contracts on sale.
Practical details: the property is freehold, built before 1900, approximately 3,520 sq ft with basement, double glazing installed post-2002, mains gas central heating and EPC rating D. Council Tax is band F (expensive). Broadband is average; mobile coverage is excellent. Buyers should factor in significant refurbishment costs and confirm any additional auction conditions or legal pack schedules before committing.
For buyers seeking a project or a redevelopment site in a low-crime, well-served area, this one-acre plot presents a rare opportunity. For a family wanting a high-end restoring project, the house could make an impressive home once fully refurbished.
