Summary - RECTORY FARM, NEW ROAD SG8 0JN
1 bed 1 bath Land
Full planning consent for four detached barn-style homes in sought-after South Cambridgeshire village.
Guide price £1,395,000 for approx. 0.89 acres (8159 ft² GIA)
A rare development opportunity on approximately 0.89 acres in Guilden Morden, offered with full planning permission (ref 23/04190/FUL) for four detached barn-style dwellings plus the existing farmhouse. The site is already allocated with detailed planning conditions, reducing planning risk for a buyer prepared to discharge conditions and deliver a high-quality rural scheme.
The existing farmhouse and adjacent barn offer additional refurbishment or redevelopment potential, subject to consents. The location benefits from fast broadband, excellent mobile signal, low flood risk and easy road links to Royston and Cambridge; nearby stations provide rail services to London. No CIL payment or S106 is required, improving cashflow predictability for construction.
Buyers should note several planning conditions require pre-commencement approvals: protective boundary fencing, approved hard and soft landscaping, biodiversity enhancement measures, agreed boundary treatments and samples of external materials. The site is sold with existing public and private rights, easements and wayleaves which the purchaser must investigate. Tenure is unspecified and should be confirmed prior to exchange.
This opportunity suits developers or investor-builders seeking a village-edge scheme in a very affluent rural setting. The consented barn-style homes and scope to refurbish the farmhouse create a clear route to delivery, but achieving the approved design will require prompt submission of the detailed plans and compliance with the stated conditions.
