A rare, level freehold plot on Gritstone Road with planning consent (Application 23/00184/FUL) for a generously proportioned four-bedroom family home. The site sits in a sought-after residential area on Matlock’s outskirts, about one mile from the town centre, with convenient road and bus links and easy access to local schools and Peak District countryside.
Indicative drawings show a contemporary two-storey detached house with garage and driveway; there is scope to submit amended designs subject to local authority approval. Mains services are believed available for connection, though connections and costs will need confirming with utility providers. The plot is considered readily developable, making it suitable for an experienced self-builder or a small housebuilder.
The location is a strong selling point: low crime, very affluent surrounding area, good broadband speeds, and proximity to primary and secondary schools (several rated Good by Ofsted). Drawbacks to note: this is a building plot requiring full construction and project management, build costs and service-connection fees are additional, and one nearby primary school has a ‘Requires improvement’ rating. Mobile signal is average.
Overall, the site offers straightforward development potential for buyers wanting a modern family home in a desirable Matlock location, with the benefit of existing planning consent to shorten lead times. Viewing and due diligence, including enquiries about services and costs, are recommended before commitment.
