Summary - Land North of Church Road, Wickham Bishops CM8 3JS
1 bed 1 bath Land
Outline consent for up to 50 homes in an affluent village setting.
Approximately 6.05 acres (2.45 ha) of developable land
A rare development opportunity on the western edge of Wickham Bishops: about 6.05 acres with outline planning for up to 50 dwellings (appeal ref APP/X1545/W/23/3333081, Feb 2025). Access is from Church Road and the existing bungalow will require demolition to deliver the approved access. The site sits in an affluent village setting with low crime, fast broadband, and convenient links to Witham (regular trains to London Liverpool Street, circa 45 minutes) and the A12.
The planning consent is outline only with all matters reserved except access. The Section 106 requires 50% affordable housing and financial contributions towards RAMS, education, transport and healthcare — a material on-cost that affects viability and unit yield. Purchasers should also note the sale is freehold, will be subject to VAT and offered with vacant possession.
Technical reports and planning documents are available in a Data Room; prospective buyers must make their own enquiries regarding services, easements, wayleaves and other site constraints. With limited recent development in the village, this is an unusual chance for a housing-led scheme, subject to detailed design, S106 commitments and service provision.
