Description
A mixture of park / grassland incorporating a residential development site extending in total to 21.9 acres (8 hectares) and forming part of the Cutacre Country Park. The development site in isolation extends to approximately 0.97 acres and benefits from approved planning permission for the restoration and conversion of three dilapidated farm buildings into residential dwellings with an additional replacement dwelling to create a total of four residential units (planning ref 94293/15). Copies of the planning drawings can be found within the legal pack but in brief the completed units would range in size between 1,240 Sq.Ft - 2,335 Sq.Ft and comprise 2 x detached houses and 2 x semi detached houses. The remaining land accommodates a number of public footpaths and is subject to land management plans with further information available upon request and also found within the legal pack. Additionally, the site is sold with a restriction on use in favour of the current approved planning permission.
Access to the site is via a track from Breeze Hill Road which is accessed from Newbrook Road / Bolton Road (A579) in Atherton. The site is bounded to the west by residential housing well served by a variety of amenities available in Atherton and nearby Tyldesley and Little Hulton.
Planning
Planning permission was approved by Bolton Council on 29th September 2015 for therestoration of three farm buildings and the demolition and provision of a replacement building to create four dwellings with associated parking and open space (planning ref - 94293/15).
A certificate of lawful development was later approved on 3rd January 2019 (planning ref - 04876/18)
