Tameside Council has already resolved to grant outline planning consent for up to 31 private family homes on 2.73 acres of the 3.84 acre site on Grange Road South.
The sale is being undertaken by Colliers International on behalf of Tameside Hospital NHS Foundation Trust.
The Trust had leased the site to Pennine Care for mental health services but patients have since been moved to other locations in Tameside and the buildings are now empty and deemed surplus to the Trust’s requirements.
Mike Brassington, director, UK Development Consulting and Agency at Colliers International Manchester, said: “The site of the hospital is in a well established residential area close to Hyde town centre and is potentially an ideal location for traditional private family homes.” manchesterconfidential.co.uk

A bit of social history gone.
Sad to see.
It would be interesting to know how many homes have been built in the Borough in the last fifteen years.
The actual population increase will be released with this year's census.
No doubt the council simply see it as more Council Tax, the adverse effect on existing residents is irrelevant to TMBC.
Can anyone think of a housing development of any significant size that has been BLOCKED by TMBC in the last few years.
Saw yobs throwing stones at that hospital once.
Seperate question here:
Would you consider these actions to be nasty and violent?
Thanks for your time.
Yes you are nasty and violent now piss off with your sob storys and leave us alone
labour till i die, you're a sad wanker.
labour til i die, you told me that you did not go on the TC blog.
Sad bitter man.
Give us one of your anti BNP speeches/rants again.
Loved that night at the count.
Pack of Racist Animals Viciously Attack Grandfather
The victim clearly states they racially abused him during the vicious attack and this is the police response "A spokesperson for the Lancashire Constabulary said: "We are looking into the possibility that this was a racially motivated attack."
Before you read the article take this simple quiz to see if you can penetrate the propaganda of modern day Newspeak.
What ethnic group do you believe the victim belonged to and what ethnic group do you believe the attackers come from?
When trying to decipher Newspeak think very carefully about the police response to the victims claims of being racially abused during the attack. Ask yourself if the victim was a person of colour would the police use the word ‘possibility’ or would they emphatically claim it ‘was’ a racially motivated attack.
The police are no friends of White British people.
Sent a letter of complaint to the borough solicitor on the 12th of May.
She's no concern about fair play in elections.
It's all talk and no action.
Apologies for the interruption to the usual cobblers, but isn't the presumption of innocence quite an important part of the legal process?
Surely you would not like to see some despicable lowlifes walk free from such an offence if a barrister was to bring up the police statement at trial?
Scum comes in all colours and creeds...
The police may be no friends of white people, but the police arent fond of clubs and knucle dusters either.
Under any pressure including situations they havent been in a hundred times before they react no more logically than the average person, see the Birkenhead BCG video for evidence of it.
Oldspeak I like your style.
Maybe you could put that principle this guy.
Hasn't she replied yet. I have similar experience of this.
She ignored my question on electoral law in the run up to the election for eight days and only bothered after I complained on this website.
The ConDems gave away a record £8.5 billion in foreign aid in 2010, making Britain the most proportionally generous country in the world, and the total is set to rise year on year.
Britain gave the highest percentage of any country’s GDP to foreign lands, sticking rigorously to a misguided six-year-old G8 pledge to throw 0.7 per cent of taxpayers’ money away by 2013, a promise other countries seem to have long since forgotten.
The British foreign aid bill is set to rise year after year, reaching an estimated £12 billion by 2014.
In fact, Britain is donating double the G8 average foreign aid contribution, spending 0.56 per cent of GDP compared to the 0.28 per cent norm.
Compared with the other G8 countries, Britain spends £600 million more than France, £700 million more than Germany, £1.7 billion more than Japan and £4.4 billion more than Canada, Italy and Russia combined. Only the United States gives away more, £18.5 billion; however, that accounts for just 0.21 per cent of its GDP.
Part of Britain’s contribution will involve a gift of £110 million to North African countries such as Egypt and Tunisia over the next four years in support of the Arab Spring riots.
Up to £40 million of that will come from the Foreign Office for “political reform”, and £70 million from the Department of International Development to boost the countries’ struggling economies.
When announcing the aid to North Africa, Cameron repeated the same platitudinous excuses that he gave when he handed over £650 million of taxpayers’ money to Pakistan in April.
Then, he said the money to Pakistan would help avoid “the problems of migration [and] of extremism” and that “it’s in our interest that Pakistan succeeds”.
Clearly employing the same speechwriter, Mr Cameron yesterday announced, “If we can secure greater democracy and freedom in countries like Egypt and Tunisia, that is good for us back at home.
“That will mean less extremism, it will mean more peace and prosperity, and it will mean there won’t be the pressures of immigration that we might otherwise face to our own country.”
In 2005, the richest eight nations pledged to hike aid spending to 0.7 per cent of their gross national products by 2013.
Since 2004, Britain has raised spending on overseas aid by a whopping 74 per cent, three times the level of increase in Japan and Italy. Other countries have failed to find £12 billion of the cash they pledged in 2005.
The chief beneficiary of British aid is India, a country that has its own space, nuclear and foreign aid programmes. It gets £295 million a year.
Other top yearly recipients include Ethiopia (£214m and set to rise), Bangladesh (£149m and set to rise), Sudan (£146m), Tanzania (£144m), Afghanistan (£133m), Nigeria (114m and set to rise), the Democratic Republic of Congo (£109m and set to rise), Ghana (£90m) and, of course, Pakistan, which is set to receive a staggering £446million a year from British taxpayers.
All that money sent out yet we close hospitals.
Disgraceful.
Cameron's 'explanation' was 'I watched Live Aid'. Pathetic. Giving money to the Third World is the same as throwing it into a furnace. Zero opposition to, or even mention of, what would undeniably be a massive vote winner amongst the British public from ANY party apart from the BNP. The truth is they don't care what the public think and as long as we keep this outdated, unfair and totally unrepresentative three party stitch up electoral system it will stay that way.
It's the gutless, braindead, apathetic British masses who are REALLY to blame.
