A rare, sizable edge-of-village development plot of about 0.56 acres with full planning consent for a striking 8,579 ft² contemporary house designed to high ecological standards. The approved scheme includes six reception rooms, six bedrooms, five bathrooms, lift access to all floors and a part-basement wellness suite with pool, jacuzzi and sauna — a package aimed at buyers seeking a turnkey architectural statement in a rural setting.
The design by an award-winning Cambridge practice adopts Passivhaus principles and renewable-energy integration, offering strong potential for low running costs and future-proofing. The site sits in a natural fold and is screened by mature hedging, bordering open farmland for privacy and rural outlooks while remaining a short walk from Linton village amenities and good links to Cambridge and the M11.
Practical points are clear: a private driveway design is established but only partially completed, and the purchaser will need to arrange build works and connect services. There is scope to vary the dwelling’s size and layout subject to planning, which is a benefit for those wanting to adapt the consent to personal requirements. Viewing is strictly by appointment.
This opportunity suits buyers wanting to deliver or commission a high-spec contemporary country house with ecological credentials and generous internal space. It is less suitable for someone seeking an immediate, move-in property, or for purchasers unwilling to oversee a substantial construction project and its associated costs and timescales.
