Description
A rare opportunity to acquire a prime residential building plot with planning permission for the construction of an impressive contemporary detached home in the highly sought-after Wiltshire village of Urchfont, near Devizes.
Planning permission has been granted by Wiltshire Council (Ref: PL/2025/03334) for the replacement of the existing dwelling with a substantial architect-designed home extending over three floors, together with associated parking and landscaping.
The approved scheme offers the opportunity to create a striking modern residence designed to complement its attractive village setting, combining generous living accommodation with contemporary design and energy-efficient construction.
Urchfont is widely regarded as one of Wiltshire's most desirable villages, offering a thriving community, village amenities, excellent countryside walks and convenient access to Devizes, Marlborough and Salisbury.
This is an exceptional opportunity for self-builders, custom-home buyers or developers seeking a premium residential project in a location where development opportunities rarely come to market.
Full planning documentation is available upon request.
Agent Note: Planning permission was granted by Wiltshire Council on 19 February 2026 under application reference PL/2025/03334. Purchasers should satisfy themselves as to all planning conditions and build requirements.
