Level cul-de-sac plot with planning history for two detached family homes.
Level, very large freehold plot (approx 27,050 sq ft)
A rare development opportunity in a sought-after Wheatley cul-de-sac: a very large, level freehold plot with planning history for detached family homes. The site fronts quiet Barlow Close and sits among quality detached properties, making it well suited to buyers aiming to deliver two substantial homes in a comfortable, affluent suburb.
Planning permission exists on file: original P/P references include P03/W0834 (2003) and an amended design approval for Plot 1 under P19/S1279/FUL. The neighbouring right-hand plot has already been developed (No.36), demonstrating the deliverability of building in this location. The site benefits from no flood risk, very low local crime, fast broadband and straightforward access to the A40 into Oxford and the wider motorway network.
Buyers should note material considerations: the primary planning permission dates back to 2003 and while an amended consent exists for one plot, buyers must confirm current planning status and any necessary renewals, pre-commencement conditions or updated requirements with the council. Services and connections (mains water, gas, drainage, electricity) are not confirmed in the provided information and will need to be surveyed and budgeted for. Construction costs, local planning conditions and build-timescales are the key practical constraints to factor into acquisition and development plans.
This site will appeal to housebuilders, small developers and owner-builders seeking a village-edge location with good schools, local amenities and strong commuter links. With the right pre-purchase due diligence and updated planning checks, the plot offers clear potential to create two attractive family homes in an established residential setting.
