Description

A city centre commercial development site suitable (subject to consent) for a variety of potential end uses.

General Information

A highly prominent potential development site close to Eagles Meadow shopping centre at the corner of Salop Road and Rivulet Road.

The site comprises the former Wrexham Musical Theatre Society building, which has now been demolished. The site now comprises a level and walled portion given to hard standing with a gated vehicular access off Rivulet Road.

Services

All mains services are believed to be available for connection subject to statutory regulations.

Site Area

The site is roughly square in shape and extends to approximately 1700 square metres - approximately 0.42 acres.

Planning

There is believed to be considerable potential for the development of the site for a commercial development scheme.

It is believed that the site is not suitable for a residential development scheme due to the proximity of the property to the River Gwenfro.

A recent scheme had been approved for the property as a car wash and tyre fitting unit. The permission was granted on the 12.12.2024 under Code Number P/2024/1020.

It is envisaged that if required a prospective purchaser would enter into conditional agreement to purchase subject to obtaining necessary consent.

Directions

Turn left and at the traffic lights continue ahead onto St. Giles Link Road. At the traffic lights turn left onto Salop Road when the property will be observed on the right-hand side on the corner of Rivulet Road. The site access is off Rivulet Road.
