Land for sale

Land Off Bolton Road, Turton, Bolton BL7

Extending to approximately 4.65 acres, this attractive parcel of land has been in the vendor’s family ownership for many years. Benefiting from vehicular access both from Back Sandy Bank to the north and Bolton Road to the south-west, and situated close to established residential areas, the site offers a variety of potential uses.

Historically farmed, the land could readily be adapted for equestrian, leisure, or community purposes. There may also be potential for alternative development. To reflect this, the sale will be subject to an overage provision: In the event that planning consent for residential development is obtained within the next 30 years, 50% of the uplift in land value will be payable to the vendors at that time.

The land is fenced and predominantly good quality grassland, much of which is mowable. Please note there is currently no mains water supply, and details of any rights of way or easements are to be confirmed.
