Plot 4 at The Aviary offers a rare self- or custom-build opportunity in highly sought-after Fowlmere, just under 10 miles from Cambridge.

Roads and mains services are provided to plots, simplifying the build start.
This plot suits buyers who want a substantial family home or a high-spec bespoke residence. Guide prices for plots range £500,000–£650,000 with assessed end values of roughly £1.2m–£2m depending on size and finish. Useful incentives include a noted Stamp Duty saving and local support for architectural, building and financial advice to help deliver a finished home.
Important restrictions apply: each dwelling is designated for self-build or custom-build under the Self-build and Custom Housebuilding Act 2015 and must be occupied by the builder for a minimum of three years (Protected Occupation Period). Until that period ends, plots may only be sold to individuals or associations on South Cambridgeshire District Council’s self-build register. Buyers should also budget separately for construction costs, landscaping and any bespoke finishes.
Fowlmere is a prosperous village with very low crime, excellent mobile signal and fast broadband, plus local primary schooling rated Good and easy access to Royston and Cambridge by road. There is no identified flood risk. This plot is best for buyers seeking privacy, rural outlooks and the ability to deliver a high-value custom home, while accepting the build work and occupation obligations that accompany self-build plots.
