Description

This detached property, formerly Rectory Nurseries Garden Centre, presents a compelling opportunity for renovation and redevelopment in Ashton-in-Makerfield. Nestled on a generous plot of nearly 0.5 acres, the site includes a detached bungalow currently divided into two separate units, alongside substantial land featuring various outbuildings and a large car park area that was once utilized by the garden centre. With convenient access to local amenities and transport networks, the location is ideal for residential development. A pre-planning application has already been submitted to St Helens council, proposing the construction of five terraced homes and two semi-detached houses while maintaining the existing bungalow. The initial feedback suggests potential viability for building, though full planning permission will need to be pursued by the buyer. The bungalow itself boasts its own private driveway and retains connections for mains gas, electricity, and water. While it is currently split into two living spaces with essential amenities including lounges, kitchens, bedrooms, and bathrooms, there is also an option to revert it back into a single larger residence or remove it entirely to maximize redevelopment potential. This site is being sold freehold with vacant possession and no restrictive covenants.
