Land size
0.93 acres

Key Features

  • The subject site comprises approximately 0.925 acres
  • Development opportunity of Two Former Houses with large garden for further development, STPP
  • Located close to the junction of Hartford Road and Lower Leigh Road in Daisy Hill, Westhoughton
  • Potential Commercial Use - STPP
  • Excellent Location

Description

Two former houses set in a generous plot of 0.925 acres, ripe for further development in the garden and full refurbishment of the existing dwellings, all Subject to Planning Permission.

The dwellings have some scope for further extensions or sub-division into Apartments. The accommodation is extensive and circa 7,500 sq ft gross. Due to the nature of the existing building condition viewings are only accompanied and caution needed due to some loose floor boarding and internal deterioration of the internal fabric.

The buildings could have potential for Commercial Use, also Subject to Planning Permission.

Externally the plot includes a walled garden which tiers down to the stream. It is a pleasant environment where we believe a further two new build plots are possible, Subject to Planning Permission and in conjunction with the refurbishment of the existing building.
