A superb opportunity to purchase a 0.5 acre (0.2 ha) building plot set within a gorgeous location in Whittle-le-Woods. The plot gained planning permission in principle under application number 25/00815/PIP (dated 4th September 2025) for the construction of one detached dwelling.

The details of this planning consent can be found on Chorley Borough Councils website. A copy of the decision notice and site plan are found within these sales particulars. Since the initial granting of permission in principle, one of the two houses has had full details passed, with the remaining plot available for building on under that PIP. The plot will be offered with the benefit of electricity, water and foul drainage connections.

Located on Town Lane, the site is within easy walking distance to the village of Wheelton and its many amenities to include a good selection of public houses and restaurants. The plot is well positioned for long country walks, being only a stones throw from various public footpaths as well as the Leeds–Liverpool Canal towpath. The property also benefits from fantastic transport links, being within easy reach of the M61, M65 and M6 motorways along with the A6 offering fast access to Chorley, Preston and larger cities such as Liverpool and Manchester.

The vendor is offering further land which extends to 2.3 acres (0.97 ha) or thereabouts. This is available in addition and by separate negotiation.
