Description

Ben Rose Estate Agents are pleased to present to market this fantastic opportunity to acquire an individual building plot situated in a desirable residential location. Formerly offered as part of a larger parcel of land, this plot is now available separately, creating an exciting opportunity for developers, builders or private purchasers looking to design and build their dream home.

The plot occupies the land to the side of 201A Great Spot and offers excellent potential for the construction of a detached dwelling. By offering the plots individually, this presents a more accessible opportunity for a wider range of buyers, from local developers to families wishing to create a bespoke home tailored to their own requirements.

A second neighbouring plot is also available by separate negotiation, providing the option for purchasers to acquire one or both plots depending on their individual needs. Opportunities to secure a self-build plot in an established residential setting are rarely available, making this an excellent investment with significant future potential. Please contact Ben Rose Estate Agents for further information or to arrange a viewing.

South Ribble Council Planning Reference: 07/2025/00794/FUL. The full planning permission has already been granted.
