Summary - Land at 48-54 Shudehill, Manchester, Greater Manchester M4 4AA M4 4AA
1 bed 1 bath Land
Large freehold plot with strong pedestrian links and retail frontage.
Prime Northern Quarter city-centre site fronting Shudehill tram interchange
This freehold city-centre plot sits fronting Shudehill in Manchester’s Northern Quarter, directly opposite the transport interchange and close to major retail and leisure destinations. A lapsed planning consent (ref: 080087/FO/2006/C1, approved January 2007) previously authorised a six-storey building with nine apartments and a ground-floor retail unit; that consent has now expired and will require re-application or fresh proposals.
The site offers clear development potential for an investor or small developer seeking a substantial city-centre parcel with good connectivity and strong footfall from nearby hotels, tram interchange and leisure venues. The plot spans back to Salmon Street, providing a sizeable footprint in a high-density urban location; broadband is noted as very slow, but mobile signal is excellent.
Prospective buyers should be aware this lot will be sold at auction and buying at auction is a binding commitment with immediate deposit and fees due on the fall of the hammer. Interested parties are advised to consult Manchester City Council about current planning expectations, review the legal pack for additional disbursements and be prepared for the advertised administration fee of 2.5% (min £2,500 inc VAT) plus usual auction costs.
This opportunity suits a buyer comfortable with obtaining new planning consent or updating the expired scheme, factoring potential build, compliance and service-cost liabilities. Finance is available in principle through the advertised lender, but bidders must satisfy anti-money-laundering ID and source-of-funds checks prior to completion.
