Description
Location
The site is located close to the the junction of Bradshaw Brow with Turton Road with direct access from Maple Street, placing it at the heart of one of Bolton's most desirable residential areas. This sought-after location benefits from excellent connectivity, with the A676 providing a direct link between Bolton and Ramsbottom, passing through the scenic village of Bradshaw. Nearby villages include Bradshaw, Bromley Cross, Egerton, Edgworth and Harwood.
Situated on the border between the sought-after villages of Bradshaw and Turton, this property enjoys the best of both worlds - a semi-rural setting with excellent local conveniences. Situated near to the countryside and charming stone-built homes, the area offers a blend of peaceful living and practical accessibility.
Local Schools: Families are well catered for with a range of highly regarded schools nearby. Turton School, a well-established secondary with a strong reputation, is just a short distance away and consistently performs well in Ofsted inspections. For younger children, St Maxentius C of E Primary School and Canon Slade School (a selective Church of England secondary known for academic excellence) are also within easy reach, making this a superb choice for growing families.
Amenities & Lifestyle: The local area is home to a variety of amenities including independent shops, cafés, restaurants, traditional pubs, and delis. Bradshaw Cricket Club and Turton Golf Club offer active leisure options, while Jumbles Country Park and Turton Tower provide beautiful walking routes and family-friendly days out.
Despite its north-Bolton location, excellent transport links ensure easy access to Bolton town centre and beyond. The nearby A666 connects to Manchester, while Bromley Cross railway station is just minutes away, providing direct services into the city - ideal for commuters.
Description
The site previously received planning consent for a 54-apartment scheme under Planning Application 60424/01, demonstrating its suitability for residential development.
The topography of the land slopes from front to rear, with the back of the site featuring a steep embankment. A future development would likely be situated on the lower plateau, with parking provision anticipated to the front and side elevations. The site benefits from a pleasant, open outlook across the adjoining nature reserve and Bradshaw Brook, offering a tranquil and attractive setting for potential residents. The Net Developable Area is estimated to be in the region of 0.5 to 0.7 acres, subject to final scheme design and layout.
