Albion Mill, London Road, Macclesfield SK11 7QX

A rare and highly attractive development opportunity to acquire this imposing Grade II listed former textile mill, built in 1843 in the heart of Macclesfield, offering exceptional potential to create a landmark residential scheme. The property benefits from approved planning permission for the conversion of the former mill into 30 luxury apartments, comprising a range of traditional two-bedroom units alongside a number of spacious three-bedroom duplex penthouses, with associated access and parking (Cheshire East Council Ref: 17/0499M).

The current scheme provides 33 on-site parking spaces. There is also scope to add further apartments, subject to the necessary consents, allowing for additional upside. The Gross Development Value (GDV) is estimated at £7.5 million, presenting a compelling proposition for developers and investors. Crucially, works can commence immediately, Asbestos removal has been carried out by the current owners, significantly reducing initial risk and expediting delivery.

Combining architectural character, scale, and strong residential demand, Albion Mill represents an increasingly rare opportunity to transform an iconic industrial building into high-quality homes.
