Summary - The Drove, Barroway Drove, Downham Market PE38 0AN
1 bed 1 bath Land
Equestrian-ready plot with paddocks, stables and workshop near Downham Market.
Full planning permission for a two-storey 5-bedroom house (ref 21/00064/F)
A rare self-build plot of approximately 3 acres (stms) with full planning permission for a two-storey, 5-bedroom detached house (ref: 21/00064/F). The site is already set up for equestrian use with three paddocks, stables and a workshop, giving immediate scope to keep horses or develop an agricultural lifestyle alongside the new build. A static caravan is on site suitable for temporary use during construction.
The location sits in a quiet hamlet close to Downham Market, providing countryside privacy while remaining within reasonable reach of rail links to Kings Lynn, Ely and Cambridge. Local schools are rated Good, and the large plot offers wide field views and significant landscaping or further equestrian potential.
Important practical points: the plot is freehold and offered at £350,000 with planning and technical documents available via the Kings Lynn & West Norfolk planning portal (reference above). Note there is a medium flood risk, very slow broadband, average mobile signal and the wider area shows higher deprivation. Prospective buyers should verify services and commission surveys before purchase.
This opportunity will suit a buyer looking for a self-build project with equestrian facilities, or an investor seeking land with consent in a rural location. The permission reduces planning risk, but the site’s remoteness and infrastructure limitations are material considerations for day-to-day living and build logistics.
