An unusual and substantial development opportunity just 500 metres from Winslow’s new East West Rail station. The site extends to approximately 2.5 acres, well screened by mature trees and set within a peaceful, affluent countryside setting. The seller has commissioned designs and reports for a contemporary, eco-conscious house concept (“The Lace House”) and will provide these to a purchaser.
There is a material planning caveat: a pre-application response (21 July 2023) from Buckinghamshire Council raised objections under the site’s 'Open Countryside' designation. The seller believes this designation may be misapplied and will assist a buyer through the appeal process. Prospective purchasers should assume a planning challenge and allow time, cost, and risk for securing consent.
Practical considerations: utilities (water, electricity, sewer) abut the site on the northern edge but are not connected. A neighbouring property has a legal right to run a sewerage outfall across part of the land; this easement does not affect the shown house siting but should be investigated. Several peripheral trees are subject to TPOs, though they do not impinge on the primary building locations. Broadband speeds are slow on site; mobile signal is excellent.
This plot is offered for sale at auction. It suits a buyer comfortable with handling planning risk or an investor seeking a rare, large, well-located parcel with strong transport links and potential for a high-spec, low-carbon residence. Full site information, plans and commissioned reports will be supplied to interested parties.
