I am truly AMAZED as to why this lovely looking property was given Planning Permission to be DEMOLISHED. Anyone know why?

In particular read the bit that says 19th Oct BACKGROUND PAPERS, this shows a photograph of the house that was once there.

I was initially confused as your post states 140 Whalley Road but the planning application is for 270 Whalley Road. Looks as though the house has been empty and dilapidated for some time. There may be structural problems, dry rot etc. and the building is not listed so there are no restraints on its being demolished.
Presumably the applicant prefers a modern house with four ensuites and an additional bathroom downstairs.
