Prime half‑acre site for a prestige self‑build in Norwich’s most desirable quarter.
Planning granted for a 3,000 sq ft Georgian‑inspired home (REF 22/00870/O)
A rare single‑dwelling development plot in Norwich’s coveted Golden Triangle, with full planning permission granted for a Georgian‑inspired two‑storey home of approximately 3,000 sq ft (REF 22/00870/O, granted 29/09/2025). The site sits on more than half an acre (stms) and includes a double garage, a private driveway entrance off Unthank Road and a secondary pedestrian/bicycle access onto Eaton Park, giving the new home both privacy and easy green‑space links.
Planning is effectively agreed: only landscaping remains as a reserved matter. The owner advises mains electric, gas, water and drainage are available on site and that nutrient neutrality requirements have been satisfied — useful savings in pre‑build approvals. Freehold tenure and no flood risk make the plot straightforward from a title and environmental perspective.
Buyers should note a few practical points. Landscaping details still need formal agreement before build commencement. Utilities are reported on site but must be independently verified by purchasers. Broadband at the location is described as very slow, which could affect some home working needs unless upgraded. This opportunity suits a self‑builder or small developer keen to complete the landscaping and deliver a high‑spec, period‑inspired house in one of Norwich’s most desirable neighbourhoods.
Priced at £650,000, the plot offers substantial scope for a family home or a prestige build for resale, set within a well‑regarded area with excellent local schools and transport links into Norwich and beyond.
