Description
Property number 54252.
Rare Self-Build Opportunity in Zone 3 London
A rare opportunity to acquire a freehold residential plot in Streatham, SW16, with full planning permission already secured for a detached four-bedroom family home of approximately 1,756 sq ft.
The consented scheme has been designed around modern family living and includes four bedrooms, three bathrooms, a generous open-plan kitchen/dining/family space opening onto the garden, a separate living room, home office, utility space and a principal bedroom with ensuite and walk-in wardrobe.
Importantly, the approved design can provide a starting point rather than a fixed end result. You can work with your own architect to redesign the internal layout and exterior architecture to create a home around your own lifestyle and aesthetic. There is also potential to explore an additional bedroom through a loft extension, as well as a roof terrace, subject to the appropriate approvals.
For those who want the freedom of a self-build but would prefer support with delivery, the seller can also introduce potential builders and construction partners who could help take the project from approved plans through to completion.
Located in an established residential part of Streatham between Streatham Common and Tooting Bec Common, the site is approximately 0.2 miles from Streatham Station, with direct services towards London Bridge and Blackfriars. Streatham High Road, with its cafés, restaurants, shops and everyday amenities, is also within easy reach.
An unusual opportunity to create a bespoke new-build home in Zone 3 London, with the significant advantage of planning permission already in place.

Flood Risk
Environment Agency open data, checked around the advertised map pin for the listed acreage. Long-term risk counts flood defences; the planning map's flood zones do not. The map pin for this listing marks the postcode area rather than the exact location, so these readings describe the surrounding area. Provided by LandSale, not the listing agent, and not part of the agent's particulars. Risk varies across a holding, so verify before committing.
