Description
An opportunity to acquire a prime central village building plot, in the sought after village of Great Chesterford, with access onto School Street. The site currently forms part of a Grade II Listed property known as "The Close", and features a mixture of lawns, fruit trees and a small pond, with the area being sold totaling approximately 0.35 acres.
Planning permission was granted by Uttlesford District Council in April 2019 for the creation of a substantial 5 bed house on the site, with a new access to be created off School Street. Full details can be found using reference number UTT/18/2752/FUL. The generous plot has a variety of mature trees around the boundaries, thereby presenting an ideal opportunity to create a secluded village house.
The accommodation of the approved scheme comprises:
Ground Floor: Entrance Porch which leads to; Entrance Hall; Cloakroom; Sitting Room; Dining Room; Kitchen/Breakfast Room; Utility room; and Study.
First Floor: Central Landing gives access to a total of 5 Bedrooms, 2 of which have En-suite Bathroom facilities, and a further family Bathroom.
The gross internal area of the proposed dwelling (including the Studio) is approximately 300m² (3,228ft²).
Outside: In addition to the main house, the design also features a detached 2 bay cart-lodge with store to the side and a Studio at first floor level.
The dwelling will be reached by a new driveway that will lead from School Street, through the current Hall Garden, which falls within the curtilage of the plot.
