A rare, fully consented development plot in the heart of Smisby, offered freehold with planning (DMPA/2024/1484) for a substantial two-storey replacement dwelling and detached garage. The site extends to circa 0.94 acres and the consented dwelling is proposed at around 5,350 sq ft (GIA), offering scope for large principal rooms, extensive glazing and landscaped grounds backing onto open countryside.
The location balances village charm with accessibility: 1.5 miles to Ashby-de-la-Zouch, quick links to the A42 and major regional centres, excellent outdoor and schooling amenities nearby, and strong mobile signal. The plot sits within a Conservation Area and occupies an elevated position with rural views to the rear, making it attractive to buyers seeking a high-spec family home or developers targeting a one-off bespoke residence.
Important practical notes: services have not been investigated by the vendor and all costs to upgrade connections will be the purchaser’s responsibility. Part of the site is unregistered and the buyer must accept existing covenants, rights of way and wayleaves (a public footpath runs to the east). Broadband speeds are currently limited in the area and the property will fall into Council Tax Band F once built. Unconditional offers are preferred; all planning and technical due diligence is the responsibility of the purchaser.
