Description

Create your own detached home on an individual plot of approximately 0.3 acres in the peaceful and beautiful village of Great Ouseburn.

For many buyers, the dream is a home where every space has a purpose, and every choice feels personal. Plot 2 at The Pines offers the chance to make that dream a reality. It is one of four self-build plots on Lightmire Lane, each available individually and each intended for a detached home of around 2,500 to 3,500 sq ft gross internal area, excluding the garage.

Rather than adapting your life to someone else’s floor plan, you can work with the architect to develop one around your own. Think about the rooms you use most, the space you need as life changes and the relationship you would like between your home and garden. Whether your priorities are entertaining, family life, working from home or simply having room to breathe, this is an opportunity to consider them from the outset.

Each plot extends to approximately 0.3 acres, giving the proposed home a generous setting. There is scope to plan the outside space with the same care as the interior, from practical everyday areas to places to sit, plant and enjoy. Individual access is provided from Lightmire Lane.

Outline planning permission has been granted for four detached self-build dwellings. A Design Code and an individual Plot Passport provide the framework for each purchaser’s design. They allow for homes with their own character while encouraging a coherent, high-quality addition to Great Ouseburn. The guidance includes pitched roofs, suitable external materials, two driveway parking spaces and a garage. The home may incorporate a mix of one-and-a-half and two-storey elements, subject to the relevant parameters and approvals.

The image published and more contained within our brochure are for illustrative purposes only to help you picture what might be possible, but these are ideas, not prescribed house types. Plot 2’s final design, including its appearance, landscaping, layout and scale, will require reserved matters approval.

The Pines brings together the pleasure of village living and the opportunity to shape a home around you. If Plot 2 sounds like the right place to begin, call us today.
