Key Points
Substantial residential development opportunity. Outline planning permission granted for 400 new homes (Cheshire East Council planning ref: 19/1371N – granted January 2022). Located within the established residential market of Crewe in South Cheshire. Situated to the north-west of Crewe within the ‘Leighton West’ development areas and on the edge of the settlement boundary. The area to be sold extends to approx. 16.26 ha (40.19 acres ). Site will be sold with direct access onto a new road network and with a ‘turn-key’ drainage solution. Largely level and attractive site. Freehold for sale via Informal Tender as a whole.
Description
Leighton Green is located to the north-west of Crewe on the edge of the settlement boundary, approximately 2 miles north-west of Crewe town centre and 4.5 miles to the north-east of Nantwich town centre.
The immediate area is semi-rural with agricultural land to the north and west and residential to the east. To the south is amenity land and a cemetery.
The main access to Leighton Green will be via a new roundabout constructed as part of Cheshire East Council’s circa £30 million new road scheme known as the North West Crewe Package (opening June 2024). The new roundabout forms part of a spine road serving development areas within Leighton West.
Leighton Green extends to a total area of approx. 16.26 ha (40.19 acres), providing a largely level development site intersected by the North West Crewe Package road scheme (the areas stated exclude land occupied by the new road).
Whilst the development area is greenfield, it is situated adjacent to a former landfill with the development’s amenity and ecological areas sited on the former landfill itself. Further details including Technical Reports are available within the Data Room.
Surface and foul water drainage infrastructure for Leighton Green has been incorporated into the design and build for the North West Crewe Package scheme. This drainage infrastructure will be built to an adoptable standard with ‘as built’ plans provided by the Council once the North West Crewe Package scheme has been completed. Further details including Technical Reports are available within the Data Room.
Location
Crewe is located within South Cheshire approx. 24 miles south-east of Chester, 22 miles south-west of Macclesfield, 16 miles north-west of Stoke-on-Trent and 39 miles south of Manchester.
Crewe has excellent transport links having access to the M6 Motorway at Junctions 16 and 17, both approx. 7 miles distant. It also has a mainline railway station which sits at the junction of six rail lines and is the only station on the mainline connected to all national and regional capitals.
Historically a railway town, Crewe has grown and evolved into a modern town and remains highly regarded for its skilled engineering workforce. Although best-known today for being home to Bentley Motors, Crewe is also home to Alstom, Atos, Fujitsu and Radius Payment Solutions.
