Planning
Colchester City Council granted the following planning permission (ref: 260014) on 20th March 2026: 'Demolition of the existing dwelling and detached double garage, construction of two new dwellings and associated works to enable development.'
The site may be suitable for both self-build purchasers and developers.
No restriction on ownership or development is known unless specifically imposed by a planning condition or Section 106 Agreement.
A self-build purchase may offer SDLT advantages, as tax is generally payable on the land acquisition price rather than the value of the completed property.
Prospective purchasers should rely on their own investigations and obtain independent legal, planning and tax advice. Any planning obligations, restrictions, SDLT liabilities and development requirements should be verified prior to exchange of contracts.
