Summary - 40 BILFORD ROAD WORCESTER WR3 8PU
1 bed 1 bath Residential Development
Substantial Worcester site with policy recognition and strong local amenities.
Approximately 1.66 acres (0.67 ha) of mostly level land
A rare 1.66-acre development parcel on the northern edge of Worcester, The Pines offers a large, level canvas for residential schemes or bespoke private development. The site sits within the South Worcestershire Development Plan boundary and is identified for potential development, giving clear policy recognition though no automatic consent — bidders should expect to progress planning with the landowners (Worcester City Council and Worcestershire County Council).
The plot is largely cleared grassland with mature tree boundaries and generous road frontage, delivering strong access and flexible layout options. The surrounding area is affluent and suburban, close to good-rated primary and secondary schools and local amenities, while retaining a tranquil, semi-rural character and wide countryside views — attractive to family-focused housing or higher-value custom homes.
Practical considerations are straightforward: freehold title, excellent mobile signal and fast broadband, and easy connectivity to the city. Flooding risk is moderate in parts of the site, so a site-specific flood and drainage assessment will be required alongside any planning submission. The land is offered as an opportunity for conditional or unconditional bids; purchasers should allow for planning costs, surveys and any mitigation works when assessing viability.
For developers or private builders seeking a substantial, well-located Worcester site, The Pines represents a prominent, flexible opportunity. It will suit schemes that capitalise on school catchments and countryside views, but requires proactive planning strategy and due diligence on flood resilience and services.
