2.57 acres with approved plans for a 4–5 bed modern home near Bath.
Approved planning for a 4–5 bedroom modern family home
Kilkenny Barn is a rare plot with approved planning permission to create an exceptional 4–5 bedroom modern family home, sitting on 2.57 acres of pasture just 3.5 miles south of Bath. The scheme delivers over 3,000 sq ft of living space with high ceilings, large rooms and panoramic countryside views toward the Brecon Beacons, Beckford Tower and the city of Bath.
This site is well suited to buyers seeking privacy, rural character and off-grid potential. The plot is freehold, in an area with very low crime and excellent mobile signal, and the vendor will remove three storage containers and a mobile home unless a separate agreement is reached.
Practical considerations are important: the property is sold as a plot with planning rather than a finished dwelling, and the purchaser will need to complete the build and connect services. Broadband speeds are very slow, so buyers planning home-working should budget for alternative connectivity. The location is peaceful and isolated—ideal for families who value space and views, but less suitable for those wanting immediate town-centre convenience.
Overall this is a substantial development opportunity near Bath: large plot, approved plans, strong scenic value and potential for low‑impact, off‑grid living, tempered by the need for build completion and slow fixed-line internet.
