An unusual development opportunity in the heart of the Lake District, this stone-built plot in Troutbeck has planning consent for a contemporary two-storey three-bedroom home (Ref: 7/2025/5286). The design maximises the surrounding fell and valley views with an open-plan first-floor living area and balcony, and the existing outbuilding/garage already benefits from substantial foundations and local stone and slate availability, reducing early build uncertainty.
The plot sits in a small, private hamlet close to Windermere and local amenities including two pubs and a tea room. It is freehold and lies within the Lake District National Park, so the finished build must respect local character and quality. Services (mains water and electricity) are close by and drainage currently ties into a neighbouring septic tank; buyers must confirm and manage final service connections themselves.
Important restrictions and practical notes: the planning permission carries a local occupancy restriction — purchasers should check they meet the qualification criteria before committing. Broadband speeds are slow despite excellent mobile signal. The plot is a decent size for parking and a garden or patio, but immediate garden space is modest, and the surrounding setting is rural rather than private estate-like.
This site will suit a purchaser seeking a high-quality Lakeland home or a sympathetic conversion with good potential to capture panoramic views. It is not a turnkey purchase: building, final connections and compliance with National Park build standards remain the buyer’s responsibility.
