Description

Self-Build Development Plot - Eydon, Northamptonshire

A rare opportunity to acquire a 0.8-acre (0.3 hectare) self-build plot with outline planning permission for a single detached dwelling, situated on the south-western edge of the sought-after village of Eydon.

Set within enclosed former paddock land, the plot enjoys a peaceful countryside position close to the village playing fields and open rural surroundings, while remaining conveniently accessible to local amenities and transport links.

Outline planning permission was granted by West Northamptonshire Council (Ref: 2025/2234/OUT) for the construction of a single self-build dwelling with access, with all other matters reserved. The consent is subject to a unilateral undertaking restricting the plot to self-build purchasers with a qualifying local connection.

The site benefits from existing access and offers buyers the opportunity to create a bespoke countryside home in an attractive and highly regarded Northamptonshire village. Additional land may be available by separate negotiation.

Eydon is a charming village located approximately 8 miles from Banbury, offering a strong community atmosphere, village amenities, attractive countryside walks and access to well-regarded local schools. Excellent road links connect the area to Banbury, Daventry, Northampton, the M40 and M1, with rail services from Banbury providing direct routes to London and Birmingham.

Purchasers will be responsible for arranging all utility and drainage connections and are advised to make their own enquiries regarding services, CIL liability and self-build exemptions.

Viewing strictly by appointment. Planning documents available via West Northamptonshire Council Planning Portal.
