    About this property

      Opportunity

      Bradley Hall is delighted to bring to the market this exciting development opportunity, offering the chance to acquire a substantial commercial site in County Durham.
      The site is currently occupied and operated as an established motor dealership, with a showroom, a workshop and an associated vehicle display area. The site extends to approximately 1.5 acres.

      The extensive site size means that the property has the opportunity to be converted to a different use subject to planning permission and other necessary consents.
      The site may be suitable for alternative uses including residential, subject to planning permission.

      Location & Description

      The location benefits from good accessibility to the wider regional road network, with convenient connections to the A19 trunk road and the A1(M), providing direct routes to Sunderland, Durham, Newcastle upon Tyne and the wider North East region. Houghton-le-Spring town centre lies approximately 3 miles to the west, Sunderland city centre approximately 6 miles to the north, and Durham city centre approximately 10 miles to the south-west. The property benefits from prominent frontage to South Hetton Road and is readily accessible by both private vehicle and public transport, with local bus services operating within the vicinity.

      Planning Permission

      The site currently does not benefit from planning permission, but the site has potential for a number of uses subject to obtaining the relevant permissions.

      Tenure

      The site is to be sold with the benefit of a Freehold title.
