Farmhouse and Barn, Silver Hill Farm, Rochdale, OL16 4PT
An excellent opportunity to acquire a Grade II listed farmhouse and barn development site with full planning and listed building consent for conversion into two substantial residential dwellings.
Please note, this opportunity is being offered by way of an SPV sale, with the company understood to hold the farmhouse and barn development site as its sole property asset. Buyers must review the legal pack, company documentation and associated sale documents in full before bidding.
The proposed scheme comprises a four-bedroom barn conversion with attached garage and a five-bedroom detached farmhouse with attached garage. Both properties will benefit from attractive country-feel surroundings, while being within reach of Rochdale, local amenities and transport links.
The development offers an ideal opportunity for a builder, developer or investor looking for a character-led project with strong end-value potential.
Planning and listed building consent is understood to be in place, with pre-commencement planning conditions discharged and all necessary surveys satisfied, leaving the site ready for works to commence. Further details are available via Rochdale Borough Council under application reference 22/00999/LBC.
Prospective buyers should review the planning documents, decision notice and legal pack in full before bidding.
Important Planning / Legal Note
Prospective buyers should note there are time-sensitive obligations affecting the site, including a requirement for the farmhouse and barn to be made wind and watertight by December 2026.
Buyers must review the planning documents, legal pack and any associated agreements in full before bidding, including any rights or obligations in favour of the neighbouring developer.
Farmhouse
A proposed five-bedroom detached farmhouse with attached garage, private garden area and driveway parking. The scheme retains the character of the existing Grade II listed building while creating a substantial residential home.
Barn
A proposed four-bedroom barn conversion with attached garage, garden area and external parking/driveway space, offering a characterful detached dwelling within the wider development setting.
The completed farmhouse and barn are understood to have a combined potential GDV in the region of £1.45m, subject to final specification, market conditions and purchaser due diligence.
There may also be potential for a purchaser to acquire further adjoining development plots in the future, subject to separate negotiation.
