DESCRIPTION
We are delighted to bring to the market this unique and interesting investment and development opportunity. The investment element is predominantly residential comprising 6 terrace and 2 semi-detached houses alongside a terrace shop unit which is let and trades as a physiotherapist’s. There is also a two storey vacant barn which would suit conversion subject to any consents required. The property includes open land beyond the houses with the overall site amounting to 0.486ha / 1.202a.
LOCATION
The land and buildings stand on the north side of Huddersfield Road, the B6108, close to the centre of the village. Meltham is a popular residential area, located approximately 4.5 miles south west of Huddersfield Town Centre and 3.5 miles north west of the centre of Holmfirth in the Kirklees Metropolitan District.
The village, which had a noted population of 8,590 in the 2021 census, nestles in the foothills of the Pennines and is surrounded by picturesque countryside and yet still offers good access to the larger surrounding town and city centres of West Yorkshire and is only approximately 20 miles from Manchester. The village centre has a mix of local traders and amenities alongside a Morrisons supermarket.

THE SITE
The site of the property, which amounts to 0.486ha / 1.202a, includes a barn located between the terrace comprising 55-61 Huddersfield Road and the two semis, 67 and 69. The barn has the potential for conversion, subject to any necessary consents. There are also garden areas and off street parking serving the various houses and a car park to the rear of 75 Huddersfield Road for use in conjunction with the commercial unit to the rear of which is a timber garage and area of open land making up the north east section of the site.
DEVELOPMENT POTENTIAL AND CLAWBACK
The sale will be subject to a clawback provision. In the event planning consent is granted on the land or any part thereof for new build development in the next 50 years, the owner at that point will pay the seller 50% of the increase in value of the land as a result of receipt of the planning consent. For clarity this provision will not apply to any conversion or extension of the barn.
