A rare serviced building plot in The Aviary on the southern edge of Fowlmere, offering space and planning consent to create a substantial family home. The plot extends to 931 m² (0.23 acres) with planning permission for a detached residence up to 255 m² (2,750 sq ft) — suitable for a five-bedroom layout and generous living areas.
The plot is freehold, comes with mains services in place, and benefits from very low local crime, excellent mobile signal and fast broadband — practical advantages for modern family life and home working. Rail links at Meldreth and Foxton provide quick journeys to Cambridge and London, while village amenities and scenic countryside are on the doorstep.
Buyers should budget for full design-and-build costs, project management and the build programme; this is a serviced plot rather than a finished house. The local state secondary (Melbourn Village College) currently has an Ofsted rating of Inadequate—important for families with older children. Availability is limited to five plots, so opportunities for this location and permission profile are finite.
Overall, Plot 2 is aimed at buyers seeking a bespoke new home in a prosperous rural setting who can manage or commission a self-build project. The planning consent, stamp duty saving and projected equity uplift make it a compelling proposition for those prepared to undertake the build process.
