Description

PRIME DEVELOPMENT SITE WITH ‘PERMISSION IN PRINCIPLE’ TO BUILD TWO DETACHED DWELLINGS ON A PLOT OF AROUND 0.24 ACRE

A rare opportunity to secure a prime development site with ‘Permission in Principle’ to build two detached dwellings.

The plot forms part of the garden to Ardua, Harlestone Road, Chapel Brampton and permission was granted by West Northamptonshire Council on 4th March 2026 Ref: 2025/5277/PIP. Purchasers will be responsible for obtaining detailed permission and fulfilling the planning requirements.

A new vehicular access from Northampton Road will be required.

The development of the site will be subject to a Community Infrastructure Charge (CIL) from West Northamptonshire Council, currently chargeable at £308.87 per square metre.

LOCATION

The highly sought after village of Chapel Brampton is located approximately six miles northwest of Northampton set amongst attractive undulating countryside in close proximity to Althorp House. Communication links are good with access to the M1 motorway at Junctions 15a and 16. Train services are available from Northampton to London Euston with journey times of around one hour together with main line stations from Wellingborough with journey times to London St. Pancras around 45 minutes.

Within the village there is a primary school, and secondary schooling is also well served in the area, with Preparatory schooling at Spratton and Independent co-ed schooling at Pitsford and Wellingborough. The church is located in the neighbouring, picturesque village of Church Brampton and two public houses are within walking distance. There are two golf courses at Church Brampton, sailing, fishing, cycling and walking available at Pitsford Reservoir close by

AGENTS NOTE

The land was formerly owned by the Althorp Estate and is therefore subject to the Althorp covenants. Estate permission would be required for the development, and a fee would be chargeable by the Estate. The site plans are believed to be correct, but accuracy is not guaranteed. The purchaser will be deemed to have full knowledge of all boundaries and the extent of ownership. Neither the vendor nor the agents will be responsible for defining the boundaries of ownership thereof.

PROPERTY INFORMATION

Services: Mains services are believed to be available including mains drains, electricity, water and gas but prospective purchasers must make themselves aware of the location and the cost involved for connection.

There are no tree preservations on site, however planners have stipulated that the hedge to the road frontage to Northampton Road is retained.
