Freehold suburban plot with planning pre-application in place.
Approximately 0.8 acres of development land
A substantial development site of approximately 0.8 acres in Stopsley, Luton, offered freehold with vacant possession. The plot currently contains one detached house and two semi-detached bungalows and sits within a suburban residential setting a short walk from local shops, leisure facilities and bus links. Offers are invited either unconditional or subject to planning.
A pre-application was submitted in November 2024 and a decision is still awaited. The site has been identified as suitable for a range of residential uses, including private housing or a retirement/care facility (previously referenced as a potential 50-bedroom care scheme). Excellent transport links — regular buses, a direct train to London St Pancras (around 30 minutes) and proximity to London Luton Airport — support schemes that depend on connectivity.
Important practical considerations are clear: the wider area records higher-than-average crime and is relatively deprived, which can influence demand and funding for certain residential schemes. The pre-application status means planning outcomes remain uncertain; purchasers should allow for planning risk and factor in potential section 106 or affordable housing obligations. The site is freehold and being sold with vacant possession, offering a developer clear control upon completion.
