Description
A rare opportunity to acquire an 8.31-acre freehold brownfield site in Cold Meece, offering excellent redevelopment potential for a range of uses (STP). The former vehicle testing facility includes existing buildings, extensive hardstanding and two distinct land parcels, providing a flexible layout for future schemes.
Situated adjacent to the proposed Meecebrook Garden Village, the site is positioned within a major future growth area and benefits from strong transport links to Stone, Stafford, Stoke-on-Trent and the M6. Set outside the Green Belt, this well-connected semi-rural location offers a compelling opportunity for developers and investors alike.
Cold Meece is a well-connected Staffordshire village positioned between Stone, Stafford and Stoke-on-Trent, offering easy access to the M6 (J14 & J15) and key A-road networks. The site benefits from nearby bus services and is just 3.8 miles from Stone railway station, providing convenient links to regional towns and cities.
