Description
Extending to approximately 1.48 acres (0.60 hectares), the site comprises a broadly rectangular and level parcel of land, offering a highly workable site for redevelopment.
Previously occupied by Vernon Infant School, the site is now vacant and includes a former school building with grassed areas, trees, and hardstanding. The existing single-storey structure, dating from the 1930s, provides approximately 12,814 sq ft. We understand the building has been vacant since 2007.
The site presents a compelling opportunity to deliver a high-quality residential type scheme (subject to planning permission). The site is particularly well suited to a range of uses, including private housing or specialist accommodation such as extra care, subject to the necessary planning consents.
The site enjoys a prime position in the heart of Poynton, one of South Manchester’s most desirable and well-connected residential towns.
A key highlight is its immediate proximity to local amenities, being situated less than 100 metres from Park Lane, Poynton’s high street. Here, a mix of supermarkets, shops, cafés, and everyday services are all within a short walk, creating a highly convenient and attractive setting.
Macclesfield lies approximately 5 miles to the south, while Manchester is just 12 miles to the north. Poynton benefits from a range of public transport options.
The surrounding neighbourhood comprises a mix of housing, including detached and semi-detached homes to bungalows and retirement living, further reinforcing the site’s suitability for a residential development.
