This freehold industrial development site of just under 0.7 acres offers a ready opportunity for occupiers or developers seeking a semi-rural base with strong regional access. Outline planning permission was granted in February 2025 for 720 sq m of commercial space within Classes E(g) and B8, providing a clear planning starting point. The parcel is mostly level and hard‑surfaced, reducing initial site preparation costs, and utilities are available in the road with an easement reserved for service connections.
The location sits conveniently between Great Yeldham and Sible Hedingham, with easy road links to Halstead, Haverhill, Sudbury and Braintree. There is no flood risk, mobile signal is excellent and broadband speeds are reported fast — practical advantages for modern industrial or light‑industrial uses. The site adjoins the Colne Valley Railway and benefits from a secure boundary, though viewings are by appointment.
Buyers should note material constraints: a right of way runs adjacent to the south‑west boundary in favour of neighbouring former railway workshops, and an easement has been reserved for service runs. The original planning application was for substantially more floor area (c.1,240 sq m); the approved 720 sq m consent was reduced to secure permission. This history indicates potential to pursue a revised or bespoke application for a larger end‑user, but any increase would be subject to planning consideration.
Offered freehold with offers invited in the region of £250,000, the site will suit investors, owner‑occupiers or developers looking for a cost‑effective, consented industrial plot with scope for future expansion, subject to due diligence on rights and easements.
