Summary

An exciting opportunity to acquire an individual residential building plot in the popular village of Great Clifton, with outline planning permission granted for the construction of one detached dwelling.

Offered at a Guide Price of £80,000, Rose Bank provides an excellent opportunity for a self-builder looking to create their own home or a developer seeking a manageable single-plot project.

The site enjoys an established village setting while remaining conveniently positioned for access to Workington, Cockermouth and the wider West Cumbrian area.

Planning & Building Regulations

Outline planning permission has been granted for the construction of one new detached dwelling, with access, layout and scale included within the approval.

Planning Reference: OUT/2025/0004

Prospective purchasers should review the full planning permission, approved plans and associated conditions and satisfy themselves regarding any reserved matters, Building Regulations approval and other consents required before commencing development.

All enquiries relating to the planning consent or proposed development should be made directly with the relevant local authority.

A Fantastic Self-Build Opportunity

Rose Bank offers a fantastic opportunity for anyone looking to embark on their own self-build project.

With the principle of residential development already established, the plot provides the chance to create an individual detached home, with the opportunity to tailor the final specification and finish to suit personal requirements, subject to the necessary planning and Building Regulations approvals.

The site could equally appeal to a local builder or small developer looking for an attractive single-dwelling development opportunity in an established West Cumbrian village.

Sales & Exit Strategy

The plot provides flexibility for both self-builders and developers.

For self-build purchasers, this is an opportunity to create an individual detached home within an established village setting, tailored to their own requirements and specification, subject to the necessary consents.

For developers, the site offers a straightforward single-dwelling development opportunity, with the potential to build and sell the completed home on the open market.

Grisdales Land & New Homes would also be delighted to discuss the future marketing and sale of the completed property, providing guidance on specification, presentation, pricing and marketing from an early stage.
