A rare 2.79-acre plot with Paragraph 79 planning permission for a single-level, 10,000 sq ft luxury dwelling called Marl House. The approved design by award-winning architects is an earth‑sheltered, eco-conscious home with a grass roof, solar panels, ground-source heat pump and triple glazing, designed to sit discreetly within a tranquil rural setting near Colton and Rugeley.
This opportunity suits a buyer who wants a ready-permitted, high-end build in a nationally protected landscape. The consent covers a grand six-bedroom layout with multiple ensuites, home office, cinema, gym and a three-car garage; the scheme promises strong architectural interest and long-term low running costs thanks to integrated green technologies.
Buyers should note material practicalities: the site is sold as land (no completed dwelling) with no known mains services on site, a Section 106 obligation applies and the lot will be sold at auction. Broadband is very slow and tenure is recorded as unknown — both factors to investigate before bidding. Access to motorways, rail links and Birmingham airport is good, and the local area has quality schools and areas of outstanding natural beauty nearby.
Overall this is a specialist acquisition for a purchaser prepared to deliver the approved build or adapt the consent. It offers environmental credentials, seclusion and considerable scale, balanced by the responsibilities of connecting services, fulfilling S106 obligations and delivering a complex, bespoke construction.
