Summary - The Longview, School Lane, Great Leighs, CHELMSFORD CM3 1NL
1 bed 1 bath Land
1.1 acres with detailed consent close to village amenities and good rail links.
1.1 acre freehold plot with detailed planning consent for a 4-bed bungalow
A rare, level 1.1-acre freehold plot on School Lane with detailed planning consent for a four-bedroom detached bungalow (planning ref 25/00978/FUL, granted July 2025). The site is largely enclosed by mature hedges and fences, enjoys full privacy and uninterrupted south/west facing countryside views, and benefits from an established vehicular access onto School Lane.
This location suits a family seeking single-storey living in a semi-rural village setting. Local amenities in Great Leighs are close by, with Braintree and Chelmsford offering rail links to London (around 60 and 36 minutes respectively). Several well-regarded primary and independent schools are within easy reach, adding appeal for households with children.
Buyers should note practical considerations: the existing stable block is offered separately for removal or may be included by negotiation, which could affect completion logistics and costs. Broadband speeds are reported slow despite excellent mobile reception, and the area records above-average crime statistics. The plot is offered freehold at a guide price of £450,000.
With planning in place, the site removes a major early hurdle for development and presents clear scope to create a substantial, private bungalow with parking and generous outdoor amenity on a very large plot. Purchasers should satisfy themselves on services, boundary details and any further local planning conditions before exchange.
