Description

Development Land – Manchester Road, Denton, Manchester

Approx. 0.7 Acres | Prominent Industrial Development Opportunity | Billboard Income | Excellent Motorway Access off M60

An excellent opportunity to acquire a prominent development site extending to approximately 0.7 acres, strategically positioned within an established industrial and commercial area of Denton, Greater Manchester.

The site comprises of a level parcel of land, offering an attractive opportunity for developers, investors and owner-occupiers seeking a well-located site with excellent connectivity across Greater Manchester and the wider North West.

The land offers potential for a variety of industrial and commercial development uses, subject to obtaining the necessary planning permissions. Potential uses may include the development of industrial/warehouse units, trade counter accommodation, workshops, storage facilities or Industrial Open Storage (IOS). Interested parties should make their own enquiries with the relevant local planning authority regarding their intended use and development proposals.

Location

The site occupies a highly prominent roadside position on Manchester Road, Denton, surrounded by a mixture of established industrial, commercial and residential uses.

One of the key benefits of the site is its proximity to the M60 motorway, providing convenient access to Manchester city centre, Stockport, Tameside and the wider Greater Manchester motorway network. The location is therefore particularly well suited to occupiers requiring strong transport links for deliveries, distribution, staff and customers.

The surrounding area is home to a wide range of established businesses, industrial estates, retail facilities and other commercial occupiers, reinforcing the site's suitability for future employment or commercial development.

Development Potential

Extending to approximately 0.7 acres, the site provides an opportunity to create a modern industrial or commercial scheme tailored to current occupational demand.

Subject to planning, the land could potentially accommodate a standalone industrial/warehouse building or a small multi-unit industrial development, providing flexibility for either an owner-occupier or a developer looking to create an investment or resale opportunity.

Alternatively, the site may lend itself to open storage, secure yard space, vehicle-related uses or other commercial uses, subject to the relevant consents.

The site is predominantly cleared, which provides a strong starting point for a purchaser considering redevelopment.

Billboard Advertising Income

A further benefit of the property is the presence of existing roadside billboard advertising, which currently generates revenue.

Given the site's prominent position alongside a busy road network, the advertising element provides an additional income stream and may offer further potential to enhance advertising revenue in the future, subject to the existing agreements and any necessary consents.

Further information regarding the billboard arrangements and income can be made available to seriously interested parties.

The site is being marketed on the basis of its industrial and commercial development potential. Prospective purchasers are advised to make their own enquiries with the relevant local planning authority to confirm that their proposed development or use is acceptable.
