A rare freehold plot adjoining the historic Victoria Mill on Parr Lane, offered for sale by online auction with a guide price of £3,500. The site sits in an affluent part of Bury with very low local crime, strong transport links to Manchester via Metrolink and major roads, and convenient access to local shops, schools and green spaces. Mobile signal is excellent; broadband speeds are average.
The land offers clear development potential for residential, commercial, or mixed-use schemes subject to obtaining necessary planning permission (STPP). Its prominent location and proximity to established amenities and transport hubs make it attractive to developers, investor-builders and those seeking a redevelopment opportunity close to Bury town centre.
Buyers should note this will be sold at online auction on 27 August 2025 and is offered with full freehold title. Interested parties must review the legal pack carefully: purchases will be subject to a buyer’s premium and there may be additional fees. The vendor is a connected party; prospective purchasers should take independent legal and planning advice before bidding.
This plot is best suited to those who can manage a planning-led project and handle pre-application enquiries and consent processes. While there is clear upside from location and transport, the site requires planning approvals and any preparatory works, so allow time and budget for consenting and potential site preparation.
