Description

This single building plot offers a compelling opportunity for those looking to invest or develop in the picturesque village of Wrabness, located to the east of Colchester. With full planning permission granted by Tendring District Council for the demolition of the existing forge building and the construction of a three-bedroom detached house, this site provides a clear path forward for potential development. Situated at the intersection of Primrose Hill and Wrabness Road, the plot enjoys stunning countryside views from its front aspect. The rear borders Wrabness Woods, which is managed by the RSPB, creating an appealing natural backdrop. The location benefits from accessible transport links, making it easy to reach both Colchester and Harwich via the A120. The property has essential services on-site, including electricity and water, while drainage connections are nearby. However, it should be noted that there is no gas supply available. Potential buyers will need to review specific planning conditions associated with the approved project; these details are available through Tendring District Council's planning section. In addition to its development potential, this plot includes various existing rights such as drainage and utility easements. The purchaser will be expected to familiarize themselves with these rights and any obligations they entail. Local authority oversight is provided by Tendring District Council. For those interested in viewing this promising site or learning more about its investment potential, arrangements can be made through Stanfords. This freehold property promises not only a chance for personal development but also an opportunity within a rural community that continues to attract attention for its charm and accessibility. Broadband availability at standard and superfast speeds enhances the site's viability for modern living needs, while low flood risk statistics indicate a secure location for residential construction. Mobile service provides options outdoors with major providers ensuring connectivity in this scenic area.
