Rare semi-rural plot with planning for three executive homes near a tranquil fishing pond.
Full planning for 3 x four-bedroom detached homes (Ref: 2024/0539).|Freehold site next to The Dell fishing pond, waterside outlooks.|Very large individual plots with private gardens and garages.|Anticipated GDV around £1,275,000 (provided figure).|Small town fringe location; wide area class: renting hard‑pressed workers.|Very deprived local area and high recorded crime rates.|Average broadband speeds; excellent mobile signal on site.|Development and construction works required to deliver houses.
This freehold semi-rural building plot has full planning permission (Ref: 2024/0539) to deliver three four-bedroom detached executive homes. Positioned next to The Dell fishing pond, the site offers waterside outlooks and very large individual plots — attractive for buyers seeking detached family homes with private gardens and garages.
The consent and spacious plot reduce early planning risk for a developer or small housebuilder. Anticipated gross development value is around £1,275,000 (as provided). The site has good mobile signal and basic local amenities nearby, and primary and secondary schools rated Good to Outstanding are within reach.
Buyers should note material drawbacks: the location sits in a very deprived area with high local crime rates and limited broadband speeds. The site is on the small-town fringe, so sales pricing and rental demand may be influenced by the wider neighbourhood profile. Development works, servicing and construction costs will be required to deliver the consented homes.
This is a clear opportunity for a developer or investor prepared to build out three executive homes with strong plot sizes and waterside appeal, while accepting local socio-economic challenges and the usual build costs associated with new house construction.
