Description

This semi-rural plot of approximately 0.7 acres presents a distinctive opportunity for investment, with full planning permission granted for the construction of a modern barn-style residence. Nestled off Darrs Lane in Northchurch, the site offers a peaceful setting, surrounded by the natural beauty of the Chilterns Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, and is easily accessible from both Berkhamsted and Tring stations. Currently hosting an existing structure slated for demolition, this property will transform into an inviting home encompassing around 1,062 sq ft (99.2 sq m). The proposed design will feature an open-plan kitchen, dining, and living area, along with three bedrooms including a principal suite with ensuite amenities. Potential buyers should note that the new build's orientation will be adjusted to optimise land use. Additional costs including a CIL payment estimated at £3,773 and utility service connections will be necessary to complete the project. This location not only provides generous amenity space but also benefits from connectivity to local schools and facilities in Berkhamsted—ideal for families seeking a blend of rural tranquillity and urban accessibility.
