Description
A rare opportunity to acquire an individual building plot with full planning permission for an exceptional contemporary eco-home, occupying an idyllic position overlooking open studland in the highly sought-after village of Cheveley.
THE PROPERTY
An exciting opportunity to acquire a building plot extending to approximately 0.22 acres, with full planning permission (25/01356/FUL) for the construction of an impressive contemporary 4-bedroom detached eco-home with accompanying cart-lodge.
Thoughtfully designed to complement its unique setting, the proposed two-storey home will be of timber-frame construction with larch or oak cladding beneath PV slate tiles. Extensive glazing to the principal ground-floor living spaces has been carefully incorporated to maximise natural light and take full advantage of views across the mature garden and paddocks beyond.
Sustainability sits at the heart of the design, with careful consideration given to the materials, construction methods and ongoing energy requirements of the property. The specification includes ground-source heating and solar slates creating a comfortable and energy-efficient contemporary home.
The proposed accommodation extends to approximately 3,200 sq ft and includes a generous reception hall, sitting room, impressive kitchen/dining room, study and utility room. The first floor provides four bedrooms, each with its own en-suite, while a substantial basement store provides valuable additional space.
Outside, the property will benefit from a generous private garden, with existing planting retained and enhanced to complement the surrounding landscape. Ample parking will be provided alongside a detached cart lodge with an electric vehicle charging point.
