LAND LYING TO THE NORTH OF 7 WAKEFIELD ROAD

An exciting development opportunity in a prime residential location!

This 0.19-acre plot (approximately 780.46 sq.m.) offers excellent potential for residential development. Planning permission was previously granted on 19th March 2021 (Application No: 20/01055/FUL) for the construction of five four-bedroom townhouses. Please note that this planning has now lapsed, and any redevelopment would require obtaining the necessary new consent.

The site is situated in a popular and convenient area, just 0.25 miles north of Stalybridge town centre, offering easy access to a variety of amenities, transport links, and schools. The plot benefits from frontage onto Wakefield Road and access from Kinder Street, making it an attractive prospect for future development.

Whether you're a developer or investor, this is a fantastic opportunity to unlock the potential of this well-positioned plot and meet the growing demand for quality family homes in the area.
