Woodcock Lodge Acres is a rare semi-rural plot of about 0.5 acres offering paddock views and significant development upside. The site benefits from planning consent to convert and extend an existing agricultural barn into an 85.69 m² (c.922 sq ft) two-bedroom, two-bathroom home with open-plan living — a clear opportunity for a self-builder or investor targeting a countryside retreat.
The consent (East Herts 3/25/0379/ARPN) expressly permits conversion and extension but does not allow demolition and replacement of the existing building. Mains water is connected and there is vehicular access; other services are reportedly not connected, so buyers should budget for utility connections and potentially substantial on-site works. Broadband speeds in the area are slow despite excellent mobile signal.
Positioned off a private road in Epping Green, the plot sits in a prosperous rural area with good local schools and countryside amenities. Bayford station is approximately two miles away for commuter access; the M25, A1(M) and A10 are all within sensible driving distance. Flood risk is low and the title is freehold, simplifying ownership.
This is a straightforward proposition for buyers comfortable with barn conversions and on-site infrastructure work. The planning in place reduces initial entitlement risk, but the restriction against demolition and the lack of full services are important practical and cost considerations. Viewings and technical due diligence are recommended to confirm service provision, build costs and programme.
