Set well back in a tranquil hamlet, this large freehold plot offers a rare chance to build a contemporary four-bedroom family home with wide open-plan living and terrace access to front and rear gardens. Planning consent (ref 2022/2368/FUL) was granted and a certificate of lawfulness confirms the consent has been implemented, so construction can proceed without delay. The site sits centrally within generous grounds, providing scope for parking, landscaping and private outdoor space.
The proposed layout is family-focused: an L-shaped kitchen/dining/family room linked to a sitting room with full-height glazing, a study, utility and ground-floor cloakroom. Upstairs includes four double bedrooms with ensuite facilities to the master and second bedroom, plus a family bathroom — a flexible arrangement suited to parents working from home and growing families.
Practical issues are straightforward but material. The existing dwelling dates from before 1900 and could be renovated instead of rebuilt; walls are traditional stone with no assumed insulation. Mains water and electricity are connected, mains gas is close by, but the private drainage system will need replacing. A demolition report confirms no asbestos on site and the garage has already been removed.
This plot suits buyers seeking a countryside family home with contemporary living, or investors/developers who can capitalise on consented replacement. Mobile signal is average, broadband speeds are fast, and crime levels are very low — all reinforcing the site’s rural, family-friendly appeal.
