An elevated, gated plot at Waters Edge Marina with recent planning consent for a substantial stone residence of approximately 3,000 sqft. The site benefits from a private, secluded position overlooking the marina and River Nene, with strong road links to the A47/A1 and good rail access via Peterborough for mainline services to London. The setting suits a grand, bespoke family home with generous internal space and landscaped grounds.
Planning has already been granted and accompanying drawings are available, making this a rare opportunity to progress quickly to construction. The surrounding area offers low crime, good local schools, leisure and marina amenities, and a prosperous rural environment — attractive to buyers seeking tranquillity without isolation.
Notable practical points are straightforward: the plot is chain-free but tenure is currently unknown and should be confirmed by purchasers. There is a medium flood risk for the location, which will affect insurance, drainage design and certain build details. Mobile signal is average, though broadband speeds are reported as fast.
This site is best for a buyer planning a bespoke “grand design” build, an investor able to manage the planning-to-build process, or a family wanting long-term, waterside living. Buyers should factor in build costs, flood mitigation, and final connections when assessing overall budget and timescales.
