Land at Blacksmiths Lane

Sheldon Bosley Knight and Inchbald Day have been jointly instructed to market and sell this unique development opportunity. Outline Planning Permission has been granted for the "development of 4 self-build bungalows" (ref 21/01978/OUT). With permission granted on the 23rd March 2022. The permission is subject to a S106 agreement which requires the bungalows to be developed as self-build properties and a payment to be made towards off-site affordable housing.

The Self-build and Custom Housebuilding Act 2015 (as amended by the Housing and Planning Act 2016) gives a unique opportunity for developers to build a home where the initial owner has primary input into its final design and layout.

The site stands in approximately 1.18 acres (.48ha) and sits on the edge of the highly regarded Worcestershire village of Cropthorne which boasts an excellent range of local facilities including the
Cropthorne-with-Charlton First School, village hall, a pub, recreation ground and St Michaels Church.
The well served towns of Evesham and Pershore are 3.5 miles and 4 miles away respectively.
The site lies at the end of Blacksmiths Lane immediately adjoining The Sheppey Playing Fields. The site is currently laid down to grass.
