Freehold plot with approved plans for a four-bed family home near local schools.
Full planning permission (ref 10/01206/FUL) granted and instigated by adjacent build
A rare self-build opportunity on a freehold plot in Castle Donington with full planning permission (ref 10/01206/FUL) already instigated by the neighbouring build. The approved scheme is for a four-bedroom detached family home with master and guest ensuites, a family bathroom, generous open-plan kitchen/dining/family space, integral garage and private garden — a practical layout for family life and modern living.
Services are partly in place: the electricity service runs to a box at the eastern boundary and inspection chambers for foul and surface water lie on the eastern boundary. The plot has fast broadband and excellent mobile signal, and sits in a small-town fringe setting close to good primary and secondary schools, local sports and leisure facilities — useful for family buyers or builders aiming for local market resale.
Important practical points: the planning permission was granted in 2012 and one of the two originally approved dwellings has been built, which instigated the permission. The purchaser must check the current status and any outstanding conditions on the North West Leicestershire District Council planning portal. The plot is small and the buyer will be responsible for completing construction, complying with any planning conditions, verifying services, and meeting all build and legal costs.
This plot suits an experienced self-builder, small developer or family seeking a tailored new home in a quiet town-fringe location. It offers clear design intent and on-site services nearby, but requires active project management and budget for completion and checks on planning compliance before committing.
