FULL DESCRIPTION

Freehold Development Land with Previous Consent for 12 Homes, Troedyrhiw, Merthyr Tydfil CF48 4NA. Guide Price £100,000.

THE OPPORTUNITY
Freehold land north of Fernhill, Mount Pleasant, Troedyrhiw, extending to approximately 14,406 sq m (about 3.6 acres, subject to measured survey) in two adjoining parcels. The land previously had planning consent for 12 homes, which has now lapsed. It will be offered at our Claridge's auction on 28 October 2026 with a guide price of £100,000, and could suit developers, self-builders and land investors.

THE LAND
The land lies east of Fernhill Close and north of Chapel Street. It is currently wooded and is made up of two adjoining parcels. Subject to planning, this gives flexibility for:

a phased development
separate plots
a single scheme across the whole site

The site area and description are based on information from the seller and the title. The auctioneers have not yet inspected the land.

PLANNING
The land previously had consent for 12 homes, which has now lapsed. Any development will need a fresh planning application to Merthyr Tydfil County Borough Council. The previous consent gives a useful planning history but does not guarantee that a new application will succeed.

Buyers should check the following before bidding:

the planning history
access from Fernhill Close
levels and ground conditions
trees and ecology
any mining legacy
