Plot 2 at The Aviary is a rare self/custom-build opportunity in sought-after Fowlmere, offering 0.23 acres and permission for a home up to 2,750 sq ft. The plot is delivered with roads and mains services in place, and the location benefits from broad countryside views, excellent mobile signal, fast broadband and very low local crime — a strong base for a spacious family house or high-value bespoke home.
This development is aimed at self/custom builders: architectural, building and financial support is available, but buyers must meet the Section 106 requirement to occupy their completed dwelling for a minimum of three years and be on the South Cambridgeshire self-build register until that Protected Occupation Period expires. Buyers should plan for the full build programme and associated costs; guide prices for plots range £500,000–£650,000, with end values estimated at £1.2m–£2m depending on size and finishes.
Fowlmere delivers village amenities — primary schools rated Good, a popular pub, village hall, greens, and an RSPB reserve nearby — with Royston and Cambridge within easy driving distance and rail links to London. Note local secondary provision has a weaker Ofsted rating; commuting and schooling options vary by preference. There is no flood risk recorded for this plot.
This plot suits buyers who want control over design and specification in a peaceful, affluent rural setting. It is not a turnkey house purchase: expect to manage a construction programme or appoint a builder and budget for the build, finishes and any bespoke landscaping to maximise the projected market value.
