Wrexham housing development for nearly 200 homes has been put on the market

A major housing site with planning permission for up to 189 homes is being brought to the market in Wrexham.

The application for the 15 acre site at Rhosrobin proved controversial and was approved at appeal after Wrexham Council’s planners had rejected the scheme.

During a planning hearing in 2018, the reported lack of new houses being created in the county was used as justification to allow the scheme to go ahead.

It is now being offered for sale by informal tender.

Legat Owen are instructed by Liberty Properties to market the site and Legat director Stephen Wade said: “Studies show that Wrexham is in desperate need of new housing.

“The Local Plan has been delayed and sites with planning permission are few and far between.

“Our clients have been working hard since the successful appeal decision back in June 2019 to clear as many of the pre-start conditions as possible so a house builder can start construction quickly and boost housing supply.

“The settlement of Rhosrobin, just 1.5 miles from Wrexham town centre, is ideally situated for its ease of access to, Wrexham Maelor Hospital, Glyndwr University and town centre shops and services.”

Legat Owen are inviting offers by 12noon on Friday October 30.
