Description

An excellent opportunity to acquire a freehold building plot, with views over open countryside to Bredon Hill, in the rural village of Westmancote.

Full planning permission was granted on appeal on 20 September 2024 for the construction of an individual detached three-bedroom dwelling with a detached double carport.

The approved plans provide for an attractive one-and-a-half-storey home. The proposed ground-floor accommodation comprises a lounge, kitchen, spacious dining/ living room, utility room, cloakroom and principal bedroom with an en-suite. On the first floor are two further bedrooms, each shown with an en-suite, together with a separate study.

The dwelling has been designed in a traditional rural style, with low eaves, dormer windows and a simple form intended to complement its setting. The approved site layout includes front and rear gardens, a patio, driveway parking and a detached double carport.

The plot occupies a countryside setting within the Cotswolds National Landscape, with Westmancote positioned close to Bredon and within convenient travelling distance of Tewkesbury.

Planning permission was granted under application reference W/23/01952/FUL, following appeal reference APP/H1840/W/24/3342074, and is subject to the conditions contained within the appeal decision. The permission requires development to commence no later than 20 September 2027.

Prospective purchasers should review the complete planning application, approved drawings, appeal decision and associated documents on the Wychavon District Council planning portal.
