Exceptional Development Opportunity: Prime Land with Planning for Nine Homes in Telford

Description
An outstanding and rare development opportunity awaits discerning developers and investors on Lightmoor Road, Telford. This substantial parcel of land, extending to approximately 0.90 acres (0.365 hectares), comes with the significant advantage of existing planning permission for a residential scheme, making it an incredibly attractive proposition in the current market.

The site benefits from approved planning consent for the construction of nine new dwellings, comprising five detached houses and four semi-detached houses. This well-considered scheme offers a mix of property types, designed to appeal to a broad range of potential buyers, thereby maximising the development's market appeal and potential return on investment. The planning reference for this approval is TWC/2023/0481, providing clear and established parameters for the proposed development.

Located in Telford, a vibrant and growing town in Shropshire, the site offers excellent connectivity and access to local amenities. Telford boasts a comprehensive range of shopping facilities, including the Telford Centre, as well as leisure options, educational institutions, and healthcare services. The area is well-served by transport links, with easy access to the M54 motorway, connecting to the wider West Midlands road network, and a mainline railway station providing direct services to Birmingham and beyond. This strategic location enhances the desirability of any new homes built on the site, appealing to commuters and families alike.

This prime development land is offered for sale by unconditional online auction, providing a transparent and efficient purchasing process. Prospective purchasers should note that an unconditional sale means that upon the fall of the hammer, the buyer is legally bound to complete the purchase within a specified timeframe, typically 28 days. This method of sale is ideal for those seeking a swift and secure acquisition of a development site with pre-existing planning consent.
