- Decent plot sizes with garden; no flood risk recorded

These ten self-build plots sit within the Colney Manor development in Colney Heath, each with outline consent and indicative designs suitable for a three-bedroom detached home. The freehold plots offer the rare chance to design a bespoke house, control specification and budget, and appoint your own contractor. Plots are clearly identified on the site plan and benefit from a decent plot size, a garden, fast broadband and excellent mobile signal.
This opportunity suits buyers who want a tailored family home rather than a finished property. You will need to submit a detailed planning application and follow local authority requirements before building can start. Costs, programme and final design are the buyer’s responsibility — there are potential savings versus buying a completed new build, but also extra time, fees and project risk to manage.
The location is in an affluent, low-crime suburban area with good primary and secondary schools nearby, green spaces and public transport links. No flood risk is recorded. Practical considerations include arranging planning approval, appointing contractors, and budgeting for construction, utilities and landscaping.
In short: these plots give creative control and long-term value potential for buyers prepared to manage a self-build project. They are not turnkey homes — they require planning, project management and capital commitment to realise the bespoke house shown in the indicative designs.
