Description

Presenting a unique opportunity to invest in an appealing parcel of land located in the desirable village of Ardleigh, adjacent to the picturesque Dedham Vale Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. This site encompasses just over 0.5 acres (subject to survey) and comes with full planning permission for a self-build barn conversion project. The existing barn is set for demolition, making way for a thoughtfully designed single-storey, three-bedroom residence that aligns with traditional barn aesthetics while being repositioned centrally on the plot to enhance both space and privacy. For detailed plans, potential buyers are encouraged to review the architect's drawings alongside Tendring District Council Planning Application No. 23/00697/FUL. Ardleigh provides a tranquil rural setting while also being conveniently located about four miles northeast of Colchester and just three miles from Manningtree train station, ensuring excellent rail connections to major hubs including Colchester, Ipswich, London Liverpool Street, and Norwich. This property represents an exceptional chance to create your bespoke dream home within an idyllic environment that offers both serenity and accessibility.
