A rare building plot in Quemerford with detailed planning permission (PL/2024/07571) for a 1,564 sq ft detached over‑55s home. The approved design delivers light-filled, open-plan living with a double‑height atrium, three double bedrooms each with en-suite, and a ground-floor bedroom ideal for anyone needing single‑storey living. The southerly/south‑westerly garden and large glazing promise bright, warm living and easy indoor–outdoor flow.
The site is large and set back down a long private drive, offering privacy and countryside access while remaining close to local amenities and good road links. The planning consent includes a proposed double car port/garage and off‑street parking; the plot is freehold and ready for a buyer to build to the approved specification or apply for amendments. There is potential for further permitted development, which may suit buyers who want to tweak the layout or finishes.
The plot is sold as land with planning rather than a completed house. The garden is overgrown and will require clearance and landscaping before construction, and all services, build costs and contractor appointments are the responsibility of the purchaser. Buyers should factor in building, connection and landscaping costs and confirm details with the local planning authority and their chosen professionals before exchange.
This opportunity suits a downsizer or retiree seeking a contemporary, low‑maintenance new build tailored for over‑55 living, or an owner‑builder looking for a straightforward consent in a very low‑crime, affluent area with fast broadband and excellent mobile signal.
