Description
This is a unique opportunity to purchase a prime development site located in the desirable Market Town of Watton.
The site offers excellent potential, with full Planning Permission granted by Breckland Council under Application No. PL/2024/0796/FMIN for the construction of three residential dwellings.
The site measures approx. 0.22 acres / 884 sq. m / 9,518 sq. ft and is offered for sale freehold subject to contract only.
Watton is a thriving Norfolk town that combines traditional character with modern amenities, making it an attractive location for new housing. The site is well positioned to benefit from local services, schools, shops, and transport links, while also enjoying the charm and community spirit of a market town setting.
With demand for quality homes in the area continuing to rise, this development represents a rare chance to deliver a small-scale residential scheme.

Information will be shared with the Auctioneer, IamSold. This method of auction requires both parties to complete the transaction within 56 days of the draft contract for sale being received by the buyers solicitor. This additional time allows buyers to proceed with mortgage finance (subject to lending criteria, affordability and survey). The buyer is required to sign a reservation agreement and make payment of a non-refundable Reservation Fee. This being 4.5% of the purchase price including VAT, subject to a minimum of £6,600.00 including VAT. The Reservation Fee is paid in addition to purchase price and will be considered as part of the chargeable consideration for the property in the calculation for stamp duty liability. Buyers will be required to go through an identification verification process with Iamgold and provide proof of how the purchase would be funded. This property has a Buyer Information Pack which is a collection of documents in relation to the property. The documents may not tell you everything you need to know about the property, so you are required to complete your own due diligence before bidding. A sample copy of the Reservation Agreement and terms and conditions are also contained within this pack. The buyer will also make payment of £300.00 including VAT towards the preparation cost of the pack, where it has been provided by Iamgold. The property is subject to an undisclosed Reserve Price with both the Reserve Price and Starting Bid being subject to change.
