About this property
A rare and exciting opportunity to acquire one of just two substantial build plots, each extending to approximately 0.35 acres. Both plots benefit from full planning permission for individually designed detached residences, offering buyers the chance to create a truly bespoke home in a highly desirable setting.
Accessed via a secure intercom operated gate, the development leads to an attractive sweeping driveway which will serve only four exclusive homes, ensuring both privacy and a sense of prestige. The plots themselves are nestled within beautiful surroundings, with mature trees providing a tranquil backdrop and a high degree of seclusion.

The agent hasn't said which band this home is in; you can look it up on GOV.UK. In Oldham, 2026/27 bills run from £1,735 a year in band A to £5,204 in band H.
Figures from MHCLG (Open Government Licence v3): the average bill for each band across Oldham, including the typical parish precept, so a parish's own bill can differ a little. Discounts lower the bill, such as 25% off for an adult living alone.
