A rare building plot with full planning permission (application 24/00263/FUL) for a bespoke, architect-designed single dwelling of just under 2,500 sq ft. The consented scheme provides a contemporary, single-storey layout with extensive living space, garage and landscaped garden — ideal for a self-builder or small developer wanting a one-off home in Leckhampton.
The plot is very large and positioned in a sought-after Cheltenham location close to strong school catchments, including The High School Leckhampton (Outstanding) and multiple good primary schools. Services and excellent mobile signal are available on site; broadband speeds are reported very slow and should be checked if high-speed connectivity is required.
There is an existing dwelling on the site that will require demolition before development. Full plans and drawings are available to view on the Tewkesbury Planning Portal under application 24/00263/FUL. Buyers should factor demolition costs, groundwork and full build costs into budgets — the price reflects the plot with permission, not a completed property.
This freehold plot presents clear value for someone seeking a bespoke new build in an affluent, semi-rural setting with strong schooling nearby. It combines a generous footprint, approved contemporary design and off-street parking, but carries typical self-build considerations: project management, utility upgrades and construction lead times.
