Description

An exciting opportunity to acquire one of three individual building plots, each benefiting from full planning permission for the construction of a substantial four-bedroom detached family home extending to approximately 251 sqm (2,700 sq ft). Offering the opportunity to create a bespoke home tailored to individual tastes and requirements, these plots present an ideal prospect for self-build purchasers seeking to design and build their own home in a highly desirable location.

The approved designs provide for spacious and versatile accommodation, including four bedrooms, two en-suite bedrooms, a dedicated ground-floor study and a separate utility room. The thoughtfully considered layouts offer an excellent balance of modern family living, with generous space for both everyday life and entertaining, while allowing purchasers to bring their own vision to the build process.

Situated in the sought-after village of High Beech, on the edge of Loughton, the plots enjoy a desirable setting surrounded by the ancient woodland of Epping Forest. The location combines a peaceful, semi-rural atmosphere with convenient access to the amenities of Loughton, including reputable schools, independent shops, restaurants and transport connections to Central London.

High Beech is renowned for its scenic surroundings, offering an abundance of woodland walks, cycling routes and open green spaces, alongside traditional country pubs. Despite its tranquil setting, the area remains well connected, with Loughton Underground Station (Central Line) approximately two miles away, providing direct services to Stratford, the City and the West End. The M11 (Junction 5), M25 and A406 are also readily accessible, offering convenient road connections across London and the wider region.

With full planning permission already secured that allows for flexibility of external materials and layouts, this is an excellent opportunity to take control of the design and construction of a substantial new family home, without the initial uncertainty of the planning process. Whether you are looking to create your long-term family residence or build a bespoke property in a prestigious location, these two plots offer an attractive opportunity to bring your aspirations to life.

Two plots available individually. Early enquiries are recommended to avoid missing out on this exceptional self-build opportunity in High Beech.

Note From The Vendor:

Specialist self-build mortgage products may be available to help fund both the plot purchase and construction costs, subject to the buyer’s circumstances, lenders criteria and valuation.
