Description

An exceptional opportunity to acquire a fully serviced building plot with full planning permission for a detached four-bedroom, 1.5-storey family home extending to approximately 2,260 sq ft, set within a generous 0.2-acre plot on the edge of the highly sought-after village of Crakehall, near Bedale.

The approved scheme delivers a substantial family home with a double garage, private garden, and far-reaching views across the surrounding North Yorkshire countryside. All mains services are installed to the plot boundary — including electric, BT, water, and drainage — enabling an immediate start on site and removing a significant time and cost burden for any prospective purchaser.

Flexible build contract options are available, including the opportunity for a builder to complete the property to the purchaser's specification, making this an ideal proposition for self-builders, custom-build purchasers, or developers seeking a straightforward, consented project.

LOCATION

Crakehall is a well-regarded North Yorkshire village offering a strong sense of community with local amenities including a village shop, public house, and Crakehall Church of England Primary School. The village enjoys a peaceful rural setting whilst benefiting from excellent connectivity, with the A1(M) motorway network less than 3.5 miles away.

The picturesque market town of Bedale is approximately 2 miles to the southeast, providing a wider range of day-to-day facilities, and the Yorkshire Dales market town of Leyburn is around 8.8 miles to the west. Northallerton, the county town of North Yorkshire, is approximately 9.9 miles to the east.

This is one of the last two remaining plots in this exclusive setting — an opportunity not to be missed.
