Land for sale

Chesterfield Road, Holmewood S42

This superb 1.7 acre development site presents a rare opportunity with full planning consent for 33 apartments arranged across three blocks, ideally situated just off Chesterfield Road in Holmewood. The planned scheme includes one three-storey block comprising nine one-bedroom apartments and two additional three-storey blocks offering a total of 24 two-bedroom apartments. Each block is thoughtfully designed to include communal rooms and dedicated bicycle storage, providing practical solutions for future residents.

The site is well positioned for access to the shops and amenities of Holmewood and benefits from excellent transport links, including close proximity to the M1 motorway. This development is particularly well-suited for over 55s accommodation, a sector where good quality, affordable options are in high demand, and the access provisions have been carefully considered to meet the needs of this demographic. The location and planning consent make this an exciting and unique prospect for forward-thinking developers seeking to deliver a scheme that stands apart from the competition. With its blend of convenience, thoughtful design, and strong local demand, this site is perfectly placed to become a sought-after residential address in the area.

Planning Consent

We understand that North East Derbyshire District Council have recently approved this proposal for 33 apartments for people aged 55 years and over in three buildings (20% affordable housing) reference 26/00082/mfl.

We are awaiting a decision notice to be published by the council which will set out any conditions and the specified mix and type of the affordable provision.

The full planning approval includes a church hall with plaza and service yard, two associated accesses, roadways, parking, landscaping and pond (Major Application)(Departure from the Development Plan). The current land owner intends to build the church and sell this residential element. The buyer of this parcel of land will have to agree to certain timescales on delivery and build of the apartments as this will impact on when the church hall can be built.

Linked Approval

As the two parts of the approval (residential and church) are linked, the buyer of the residential element will be unable to significantly alter the approval without consent by the current landowner and Local Authority. At present the church can only be built when 50% of the flats are constructed. This will again form a condition of any purchase.

Site Investigation & Services

No intrusive site investigation has been undertaken, and whilst we believe services are available in the vicinity, we are not aware of the cost and availability of any connections. Buyers should make their own enquiries prior to making a formal offer.
