Substantial village plot with strong transport links, sold by tender, subject to planning.
Approx. 1.06 hectares (2.63 acres) level development site
A substantial 1.06 hectare (2.63 acre) level site in Sheering, ideally positioned for residential development subject to planning. The plot sits on the north side of The Street, bordered by mature trees and open countryside, offering a peaceful village setting with good road links to the M11 (J7a c.1.3 miles) and rail connections at Sawbridgeworth (c.3.5 miles).
The land is offered via informal tender with vacant possession on completion; offers are invited by 12pm on 10 July 2025. No specific planning permission is in place, so the parcel is suitable for a developer or investor prepared to secure consent. Services and tenure are not confirmed; prospective purchasers should verify statutory utilities and legal title before bidding.
Local amenities include primary schooling within 0.3–0.4 miles, bus routes to Harlow and Chelmsford, and easy access to Stansted Airport and London. The wider area is classified as 'prospering countryside life' and 'white suburban communities', which supports residential demand, while nearby secondary schools include a top-performing option in Bishop’s Stortford.
Known constraints: the site is offered subject to planning with no guarantees of consent, tenure is unknown, and the local area records higher-than-average crime — factors developers and funders must assess. The large plot and village location present clear opportunity for a well-planned residential scheme for the right buyer.
