A unique and rare opportunity, we are pleased to offer for sale this sizeable plot of land. The plot measures approximately 426m2 (4585 sqft) and is located in a prestigious part of Hartlepool adjacent to High Throston Golf Club.

The land is set behind back behind Conroy Close, forming a broadly triangular area between Worset Lane and Hart Lane on the northern outskirts of Hartlepool. Set amongst exclusive self build homes, this offers an exciting opportunity to a prospective buyer.

The area is well served by local schools and amenities, close to Hart Village and the popular Bishop Cuthbert site, whilst allowing easy access to the A179 and A19 for quick commuting.

A previous application with a proposed new build, four bedroom detached dormer bungalow was rejected in July 2025. We advise buyers to do the relevant research and due diligence. Revised plans/proposals should be discussed with Hartlepool Councils Planning Department.
