Description

The site extends to approximately 3.48 acres (1.41 hectares) and benefits from outline planning consent for up to 45 residential dwellings, granted on 26 April 2024 as part of a wider hybrid application.

Blackburn with Darwen is a well-established Lancashire town offering a strong combination of heritage, ongoing regeneration and excellent connectivity. The town benefits from convenient access to the M65 motorway network and direct rail services to Manchester, Preston and beyond, making it attractive to both commuters and local occupiers. Continued investment in education, healthcare and town-centre regeneration, together with a comprehensive range of amenities including schools, retail, leisure facilities and green spaces, underpins sustained demand for housing across a range of tenures. As such, Blackburn represents a compelling and proven location for residential development.

The land outlined in red is included within the outline planning consent. Additional land, hatched green, may be made available by separate negotiation and can be included within the sale if requested within the purchaser’s tender submission. The inclusion of any additional land will be entirely at the seller’s discretion.

All documents associated with the planning application are available to view via the Blackburn with Darwen Council planning portal. Copies of the topographical survey, Ground Investigation Report and Arboricultural Impact Survey can be made available to interested parties via WeTransfer, upon request.

Tender submissions should, as a minimum, include a financial offer together with any assumptions made, an indicative layout plan and a proposed timescale for completion. Unconditional offers will be strongly favoured.

Please note that part of the access land has been sold to Blackburn with Darwen Council (Title Number LAN293204); however, a right of access and service connections have been retained for the benefit of the site.
