Description

This is a rare and exciting opportunity for a self-builder to complete the build of a four bedroom detached dwelling, extending to 2866sq ft within a plot of 2.1 acres. The property enjoys a secluded position, towards the end of a private drive and sits centrally within its two acre woodland plot.

The building is currently a breeze block shell and is ready for an incoming buyer to complete the project to their specification. The building regulation fee has been paid and there is three phase electricity to the building. A water connection is available on the boundary of the site and works have begun on installing a Klargester, although this will need completing.

The planning permission currently states that the building should be externally finished in a mix of aluminium standing seam wall cladding and composite cladding.

The plans show that the completed dwelling will enjoy a predominantly open plan arrangement to the ground floor level, with the first floor holding four double bedrooms, one of which being the principal bedroom with a balcony to the front aspect, an en suite and a generous dressing room.

It is our opinion that the completed barn would be worth in the region on £850,000, subject to the specification of the finish.

PLANNING Full planning permission (reference DMPA/2022/0715) was granted in November 2022 by South Derbyshire District Council. Details of the application can be obtained from South Derbyshire District Council planning portal or from Savills upon request.
