This generous 3,590 sq ft plot in Glanton comes with full planning permission (Ref: 23/00485/FUL) for a 3-bedroom detached home with 1,650 sq ft proposed floor area. The approved design provides an open-plan kitchen, living and dining area with French doors to a patio, two ground-floor bedrooms plus a family bathroom, and an impressive first-floor master suite with ensuite and dressing room. Parking for two vehicles is included on the layout.
The site benefits from a south-facing aspect and open countryside views towards Whittingham and Thrunton Woods, offering strong daylight and attractive outlooks that will appeal to buyers seeking rural character. Its peaceful village setting places it within easy reach of Alnwick and Rothbury while keeping a quiet, semi-rural feel.
Buyers should note practical constraints: broadband speeds in the area are slow, the wider area scores as deprived, and documented local crime levels are above average. These factors may affect mortgage products, rental demand and resale timings. Full planning documents and drawings are available from Northumberland County Council for detailed inspection.
This plot suits self-builders or investors aiming to deliver a modern family home in a rural community. The cleared title (freehold) and granted permission reduce planning risk, giving a clear route to construction and resale or rental once built.
