The property is situated off Lesser Lane in the locality of Fairfield, a delightful district of Buxton, situated approximately 1.1 miles North East of Buxton town centre. Its positioning provides for good transport links to both Macclesfield (9.7 miles) and Manchester (20.8 miles).

Heading in to Buxton on the A6 from Bakewell, at the roundabout take the second exit on to Fairfield Road. Continue for approximately 730 metres before turning right on to Waterswallows Road, and continue for a further 560 metres before turning right on to Lesser Lane.

Description

The sale offers an exciting opportunity to purchase a residential development site extending to 2.23 acres (0.90ha) in total, with benefit of Outline Planning permission for five residential dwellings set over 1.19 acres (0.48ha). The land that was not included within the Planning submission offers the potential to expand the site (subject to the necessary consents and widening of the highway) and it is our understanding that informal discussions with the Local Planning Authority have already taken place to this effect. The site as existing is bounded by a mixture of mature hedgerow and within is down to grass and can be seen delineated red on the plan, with vehicular access off Lesser Lane. The part of the site with benefit of Planning permission can be seen delineated blue.
