This 17-acre greenfield parcel sits immediately south of Great Dunmow town centre, offering a rare promotion opportunity close to established services and strong transport links, including the A120 and Stansted Airport. The land is open grass with established boundary trees, small ponds and a north-west gateway from Braintree Road. Its edge-of-town position supports sustainable, walkable connections to local shops, schools and bus routes.
There is scope to pursue a sustainable, net-zero carbon community here; the emerging Uttlesford Local Plan recognises Great Dunmow as a Key Settlement and the site lies outside the Settlement and Conservation Area boundary in the draft plan. Part of the nearby land (south‑east of the B1256) already benefits from planning permission for mixed commercial uses (UTT/19/1219/FUL), demonstrating local planning activity and precedent for redevelopment.
Important constraints are clear and should be factored into any offer or promotion agreement. Dunmow Park House, which sits within the property boundary, is Grade II listed and will cause planning and design constraints. Services are believed available nearby but tenure is listed as unknown; rights of way and easements affect the title. Broadband speeds are slow locally and recorded crime levels are above average.
Offers are invited for promotion either by Option or Promotion Agreement. This package is aimed at developers or investor-promoters able to manage listed-building interfaces, ecological features and infrastructure upgrades, and who can work with the council through the emerging local plan process to realise residential or mixed-use potential.
