Affordable build plot with permissions and initial footings in place near Bishop Auckland.
Planning permission for a two-storey three-bedroom detached house with garage
A rare development plot in Tow Law with planning permission already granted for a two-storey, three-bedroom detached house with integrated garage. The site sits on the A68 in a rural village location about nine miles from Bishop Auckland and offers a rear yard/garden and decent plot size. Footings have been dug and several planning conditions were discharged in 2013, reducing early planning risk.
This plot suits a small developer, self-builder or investor seeking an affordable entry into County Durham development at a low purchase price. Local amenities include two primary schools, a Co-op, post office and a GP surgery; Durham and Bishop Auckland are within reasonable driving distance. Broadband and mobile signal are adequate for modern living and the area is predominantly working-class terraces.
Buyers should note material negatives: the wider area is classified as deprived and the local classification indicates social-renter neighbourhoods, which may affect resale values and rental demand. The plot is overgrown and rough in condition; remaining build work, connections and any required updates to permissions are the buyer’s responsibility. Council tax banding and details of utility connections are not provided.
