FULL DESCRIPTION

Development Site with Full Planning for an 80-Bed Care Home, Reservoir Road, Edgbaston, Birmingham B16 9DS. Guide Price £3,900,000.

A rare freehold care home development site of approximately 1–2 acres at the former Mount Pleasant United Working Men's Club, Reservoir Road, Birmingham B16 9DS. It has full planning permission for an 80-bed care home. Lot 106 was offered at our auction on 23 September 2026 and remains available to buy now under auction terms and conditions, with a guide price of £3,900,000.

THE LOCATION
The site sits on Reservoir Road beside Edgbaston Reservoir, a setting that offers residents open views and waterside walks. Edgbaston is one of Birmingham's most established and affluent suburbs, and care operators favour it for its ageing local population and strong private-pay catchment.

The site is within walking distance of University station, with quick trains to Birmingham New Street and the wider West Midlands network. That helps with staff recruitment and makes visiting easy for families. Nearby are the Queen Elizabeth Hospital, the University of Birmingham and the Edgbaston Medical Quarter, all of which drive demand for care and healthcare-led development.

THE PROPERTY
The freehold site extends to approximately 1–2 acres. Birmingham City Council granted full planning permission for an 80-bed care home under reference 2024/01894/PA. Because full consent is already in place, a buyer avoids the time and risk of an outline application and can move on to discharging conditions and building. For operators and investors looking for shovel-ready sites in Birmingham, this scheme is ready to proceed.

OUTSIDE
A self-contained plot suited to purpose-built care accommodation. There is scope for landscaped gardens, resident parking and service access, subject to the approved plans. The site boundary and plans are in the legal pack.

PLANNING & DEVELOPMENT POTENTIAL
This site suits a care operator looking to add beds in a high-demand suburb, or an investor seeking a forward-funding or pre-let deal. Edgbaston combines an established residential setting with major hospitals close by, which is why care providers rate it highly when looking for new sites. Buyers should check the decision notice for the planning conditions, the time limit for starting work and any section 106 or CIL obligations.
