Summary - Building Plot 5 At Townhead, Sandwith, Whitehaven, Cumbria, CA28 CA28 9US
1 bed 1 bath Plot
Single detached house plot with perpetual outline permission near Whitehaven and St Bees.
Outline planning permission in perpetuity for one detached house (ref 4/14/2194/0O1)
A rare single-build plot with outline planning permission in perpetuity for one detached house, set on the edge of Sandwith village between Whitehaven and St Bees. The site extends to about 0.12 acres and sits in a semi-rural location with countryside views, good road links to the A595 and easy access to the Lake District coast and towns. Services (water, electricity, telecoms) are understood to be laid under Julia Drive but have not been tested; buyers should confirm connections and costs.
This parcel will suit a self-builder or small developer seeking a straightforward, single-unit scheme in a quiet village setting. Documents and the planning decision (Copeland Borough Council ref 4/14/2194/0O1, 2014) are available from the local planning authority; prospective purchasers must carry out their own enquiries and secure detailed approvals and building consents.
Practical considerations: tenure is not stated in the sales information and sporting/mineral rights are only included insofar as owned. Access is from an unclassified village road and the transaction requires a 10% non-refundable deposit on exchange. The surrounding area scores as deprived in local indices, which may affect resale or rental expectations.
Overall, the plot offers clear self‑build potential in a desirable coastal/countryside location, but buyers must budget for connection works, statutory checks and confirm legal/title details before purchase.
