Description

SELF-BUILD SIMPLIFIED

Piddington self-build community is for people who know exactly what they want and have rarely found it for sale.

Families who have spent years viewing houses that never quite felt right. Retirees seeking the ease of single-storey living without sacrificing the space and comfort they've grown accustomed to.

Most people assume self-build is too complicated. In truth, the planning and technical stages can be. That's exactly what Landström want to change.

At the Piddington site, the slow and complex groundwork has already been done.

The plots have been carefully selected, nestled beside ancient woodland and within easy reach of a charming village. Planning permission is in place, surveys have been completed, and a Design Code has been agreed with the local authority. Green spaces have been planted, roads laid and utilities connected.

What remains is the exciting part: creating a home that is uniquely yours.

FULLY SERVICED, BUILD-READY

Mains electricity, water, drainage, and fibre broadband — all connected to your plot boundary. Verges, landscaping, road — all beautifully finished. Piddington plots are prepared and build-ready.

 

LOCATION

Tucked away in the Northamptonshire countryside, Piddington combines peaceful village living with excellent connectivity. Just 4km from Northampton, you'll enjoy green spaces, country lanes and a network of footpaths and bridleways, while remaining close to everyday essentials.

The self-build plots sit at the southern edge of the village, served by a private road with no passing traffic. Salcey Forest is a short walk away, and within 10 minutes on foot you'll find a popular pub, coffee shop, butcher, post office, convenience store, well-regarded primary school and active village hall.

Northampton, Milton Keynes, Bedford and Towcester are all within easy reach, with the M1 providing convenient links further afield.
