A rare rural development parcel of approximately 1.29 acres (0.52 ha) on the edge of Moortown, High Ercall, with Permission in Principle (PIP) for a single modern detached dwelling and garage. The level site and existing access track make it particularly attractive to self-builders and small developers seeking open Shropshire countryside views and a large plot for a standalone home or potential subdivision (subject to planning).
Some services exist on site: mains electricity, a septic tank and a private bore hole. However, testing has shown the existing bore hole water to be unfit for consumption — the purchaser should expect to drill a new potable supply. PIP is in place but full planning will require the buyer to commission and submit a Design & Access Statement, drainage schemes (foul and surface water/SuDS), Biodiversity Net Gain Assessment and a Bat Survey among other documents.
The site sits outside defined development boundaries and is accessed from a narrow lane off the B5062. It enjoys near-360 degree open farmland views and immediate proximity to village amenities in High Ercall. Note there is a public right of way bordering the east side of the paddock and broadband speeds are reported as very slow, which may affect remote working expectations.
This is a clear project for purchasers comfortable with planning progression, site preparation and rural utilities work. For the right buyer it offers a large, private plot with strong countryside appeal and good road links to Telford and Shrewsbury; for others it will suit as a low-density investment or self-build that requires further capital and professional input.
