Description

This rectangular plot of land measuring approximately 2.02 acres (0.82 hectares) is sure to be of interest to developers looking for a potential project. Although it has now lapsed, we understand the site has previously had planning permission for 30 two, three and four bedroom houses with associated garages and parking. Further information regarding this application can be found on the Bradford Planning Portal by searching application numbers 10/041887/FUL and 07/00841/FUL.

The land is the former site of the Black Hill Reservoir which the existing owners filled in approximately 7 years ago and is surrounded by other residential developments to 3 sides. It benefits from some idyllic views with Keighley town centre 1.4 miles and Bradford city centre 11.6 miles to the South East.

Flood Risk

Environment Agency open data, checked around the advertised map pin for the listed acreage. Long-term risk counts flood defences; the planning map's flood zones do not. The map pin for this listing marks the postcode area rather than the exact location, so these readings describe the surrounding area. Provided by LandSale, not the listing agent, and not part of the agent's particulars. Risk varies across a holding, so verify before committing.
