Description

Knight Frank is delighted to bring to market a significant development opportunity on Spence Lane and Whitehall Place, located on the edge of Leeds city centre. This prominently located brownfield site offers strong potential for a high-density, residential-led scheme within one of the UK's most dynamic and investible regional cities.

The site comprises a largely cleared brownfield plot, suitable for a high-density, Build to Rent-led scheme. Subject to planning, it is anticipated that the site could deliver:

• In excess of 600 residential apartments
• A mix of one, two, and three-bedroom units
• On-site amenity space, coworking areas, and landscaped communal areas
• Potential for active ground floor uses to enhance vibrancy and integration with surrounding uses


The site is strategically located at the junction of Spence Lane and Whitehall Place, just west of Leeds city centre. The location benefits from:
• Proximity to Leeds Station (approx. 15-minute walk)
• Immediate access to the Inner Ring Road (A58) and M621
• Nearby green spaces, including Armley Gyratory improvements and canal-side paths
• Walking distance to key employment hubs, retail, restaurants, and city centre amenities

This is a gateway site to the city, with excellent placemaking potential and strong visibility from key transport routes. The sites occupy a prominent location at the end of the city centre stretch of Whitehall Road, as it arrives at the A643.
Benefiting from good access to the adjacent road network, the site is also on public transport routes, and still close
enough to the city centre to be accessed by foot. To the South West corner of the Spence Lane site there is access to
a pedestrian bridge that crosses the A643.
