Every dream home starts with a dream location, and this little plot could be the beginning of something rather special! Tucked away off Silkmore Crescent, this exciting opportunity comes with outline planning permission for the construction of a four-bedroom detached family home, giving someone the chance to turn a patch of Stafford into a place they can truly call their own.
Positioned to the rear of 83 and 85 Silkmore Lane, the plot offers a wonderful leafy backdrop for a brand-new home. Currently awaiting its next chapter, the land presents an exciting opportunity for a self-builder, developer or buyer with a vision to create something special.
Outline planning permission was granted by Stafford Borough Council on 27th May 2026, under planning reference 25/41357/OUT, for the construction of a detached, two-storey, four-bedroom dwelling. With all matters reserved, the purchaser has the opportunity to explore their own ideas for the property, subject to obtaining the necessary detailed approvals and satisfying the conditions of the planning permission.
Conveniently positioned for Stafford town centre, local schools, shops and amenities, the location also offers access to the town's railway station and excellent road connections, making it an appealing proposition for those looking to build a home in an established residential neighbourhood.
So, whether you're a developer searching for your next project or you've always fancied building a home that's entirely your own, this could be the plot twist you've been waiting for!

Anti-Money Laundering & ID Checks
Once an offer is accepted on a property marketed by Dourish & Day estate agents we are required to complete ID verification checks on all buyers and to apply ongoing monitoring until the transaction ends. Whilst this is the responsibility of Dourish & Day we may use the services of MoveButler, to verify Clients’ identity. This is not a credit check and therefore will have no effect on your credit history. You agree for us to complete these checks, and the cost of these checks is £45.00 inc. VAT per buyer. This is paid in advance, when an offer is agreed and prior to a sales memorandum being issued. This charge is non-refundable.

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.
