This plot offers a rare chance to build a contemporary single-storey family home in an affluent, semi-rural pocket of Ormskirk. Full planning permission (West Lancs Ref 2023/0808/FUL) has been granted, subject to conditions, for a 4-bedroom detached bungalow of about 2,024 sq.ft with an integral garage and extensive south-facing gardens. The design specification includes high insulation, provision for photovoltaic panels, and options for a ground or air-source heat pump and green roof.
The site is just over a quarter of an acre, set off a private, tree-lined drive and enjoying elevated, greenbelt and woodland aspects with strong privacy. Mains services (gas, water, electricity) are available adjacent and can be extended; foul drainage ties into a nearby mains connection. A right of way for access has already been approved, though the access road is owned by a third party (Stocks Hall Care Homes), and planning permission carries conditions that must be met before construction.
Buyers should note practical constraints: a mature chestnut tree adjacent to the proposed new opening is subject to a Tree Preservation Order, and the planning consent was granted with conditions that will require compliance. There is also a discrepancy in listing details about the number of bathrooms (planning notes two bathrooms; the summary field lists one) — purchasers should verify the approved drawings and specification. As a new-build self-build/development plot, buyers should budget for build costs, compliance with planning conditions, and site preparation works.
