Plans for homes on former Dudley Liberal Club site
A former liberal club site in Dudley is on the market for £500,000.
Estate agent Select House is marketing the old Woodside Liberal Club grounds in Stourbridge Road, which have outline planning consent for 14 homes.
It comes after the club and linked buildings were demolished after falling out of use.
Ward councillors have welcomed the development, highlighting the need for new homes in the area.
Councillor Christine Perks, of Netherton, Woodside and St Andrews ward, said: “I welcome all new homes, we have got quite a shortage in Dudley. I understand the plans have been in the pipeline for some time.”
Planning permission to knock down the former club was granted in February 2015, while the outline planning permission was granted on March 12 this year.
The properties could vary from apartments to terraced and semi-detached houses.
A council report, outlining the homes plan, said: “The application seeks outline planning permission for the demolition of the existing building and the erection of 14 residential units.
“Access, layout and scale are to be considered. The development would comprise 10 houses and four apartments, which would be located to the front of the site adjacent to Stourbridge Road.
“The application proposes the erection of a small block of four apartments fronting Stourbridge Road.
“The parking serving the apartments would be formed in a small forecourt providing five spaces, including a disabled space immediately adjoining the proposed access.
“Three terraced dwellings would be sited to the south of the proposed access road.
“Two pairs of semi-detached properties and a terrace of three properties would be located at the head of the cul-de-sac.”
