Development Opportunity – Detached Bungalow on a Generous 0.75 Acre Plot
An exciting opportunity to acquire a detached bungalow on a substantial plot at Ditchfield Road, Widnes. The property previously held lapsed planning permission (1993) for the construction of three detached dwellings, offering significant potential for redevelopment (subject to the necessary planning consents). Details can be found on the Halton council website.
The existing bungalow, while requiring full renovation, offers excellent scope for refurbishment and could be retained as a spacious, single-storey family home. Alternatively, the site presents a fantastic prospect for developers or self-builders looking to capitalise on the generous land available.
Located in a well-established residential area, the property benefits from proximity to highly regarded schools, local shops, and Widnes town centre. Excellent transport links via the M62/M56 motorways and nearby train stations make this an attractive location for commuters to Liverpool and Manchester.
A rare opportunity to invest in a versatile site in one of Widnes’ most popular residential areas.
