FOR SALE R1308 - Residential Development Land, 68 Brothers Street, Blackburn, BB2 4SY

Description

The site is part of the large gardens held with the bungalow, which is to be

retained and falls gently down to an extensive frontage to the Leeds

Liverpool Canal beyond which there are panoramic views stretching across

to Billinge Hill.

It is amidst an established and popular residential area where

comprehensive amenities are nearby, including shops, schools and there

is easy access into Blackburn centre, five minute walk to Cherry Tree

station, ten minute walk to Witton Country Park and five minute drive to

motorway intersections.

Planning

Planning Permission in Principle was obtained from Blackburn with Darwen

Borough Council on the 3rd December 2025 (App No. 10/25/1097) for

residential development with up to 8 detached houses.

The application was accompanied by an illustrative drawing showing how

the site could possibly be laid out.

The Council is unlikely to require any Section 106 contributions or CIL as

the scheme is for less than 10 houses and not more than 0.5 hectares.

The Council may seek a contribution towards the provision of Affordable

Housing, however, this can be ameliorated by a submission demonstrating

the payment of such sums would result in the project being financially

unviable.

Tenure

The land will be sold Freehold and free from Chief Rent.

A narrow strip will be retained along the western boundary.

Services

It is understood that all mains services are available with main sewer

running along the northern boundary close to the edge of the canal.

Interested parties are advised to make their own enquiries.

To View

Strictly by appointment with Peter E Gilkes & Company and with whom all

negotiations should be conducted.
