Large corner plot with mature trees and high privacy
Frontage to Morley Road; access possible via Brooklyn Avenue

This large corner plot on Morley Road comes with detailed planning permission (21/00906/F) to replace the existing detached bungalow with four detached executive homes — a clear development opportunity in an established Chaddesden suburb. The site has generous frontage to Morley Road and potential access for three plots via Brooklyn Avenue, giving flexibility for construction and layout.
The current property is a mid-century detached bungalow set in mature gardens with substantial tree cover and strong privacy. The bungalow is average in size (approximately 1,744 sq ft) and shows signs of wear; renovation or demolition would be required if retaining the existing building.
Practical considerations are straightforward: the plot is large, broadband speeds are fast and mobile signal is excellent, supporting modern builds. Flooding risk is medium and tenure is unknown — both should be investigated during due diligence. Local amenities, schools (several rated Good nearby) and transport links make the location attractive to families and buyers.
This opportunity suits developers or buyers looking to secure a substantial, well-located plot with planning in place. The granted permission removes a significant early-stage planning risk, but purchasers should factor in build costs, medium flood risk mitigation and any Section 106 or local planning conditions listed on the Derby City Council portal.
