Description
The development site extends to the side and rear of the existing property, with green-belt fields beyond the land boundary. The site is allocated on the Calderdale Development Plan as a housing site. Currently no planning consent exists although the current owners have had preliminary plans drawn up for 14 dwellings. There is an option if required to purchase the existing four-bedroom detached house. The owners are looking to enter into an Option Agreement on the site with a developer/builder.
Location - Set in an elevated position overlooking Halifax town centre and beyond, the potential development site is set within a popular residential location, with access to be created directly onto Claremount Road. Halifax town centre is accessible and enjoys an extensive range of amenities including supermarkets, retail shops and places to eat and drink.
Boasting excellent commuter links to the northern business centres of Leeds and Manchester, the area is popular with family purchasers. Halifax Borough Market which was built in 1891 is still serving the local community today, with many independent businesses and food outlets. The Piece Hall, built in 1779 is also still going strong with its quaint shops, now hosting concerts and other entertainment events. Shibden Hall is also within walking distance from the development land.

The map pin for this listing is approximate, 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.
