Description
Nestled in the charming and sought-after village of Fowlmere, located in the picturesque south of Cambridge, an exciting opportunity awaits those looking to create their dream home. We proudly present five self/custom build plots, each boasting breathtaking views of the surrounding open fields and rolling countryside.
Custom Build Homes is delighted to offer for sale a 10,000 sq ft plot in the highly sought-after South Cambridgeshire village of Fowlmere. This rare opportunity offers buyers exceptional scope to create their own bespoke 5-bedroom detached home, with open field views to the front and the potential for a significant stamp duty saving up to £53,750.
While the final house design is for the buyer to define with their preferred Architect, the shown example 5-bedroom home demonstrates the scale, flow and potential for contemporary family living, complete with spacious living areas, flexible ground-floor rooms and well-planned bedroom accommodation.
This plot offers buyers the chance to create superb kerb appeal by creating a modern design with clean architectural lines and extensive glazing, intended to maximise light and views.
Outside, the plot's 10,000 sq ft size offers superb potential for landscaped gardens, outdoor seating areas, and additional design elements such as garden studios, terraces or play spaces (subject to planning). The Aviary gives you the foundation to create a home that is truly yours.
