Description
This property presents a unique chance to create your own residence in the sought-after village of Swanmore. Full planning permission is in place with no expiration, providing a solid foundation for your build. The Community Infrastructure Levy (CIL) has been settled, adding to the appeal of this investment opportunity. The site comes equipped with essential utilities such as water, gas, electricity, BT full fibre broadband, and drainage already connected or easily accessible. This advantage not only reduces initial downtime but also minimizes extra installation expenses. Additionally, options for a timber-frame construction have been explored by the current owner; once a base is established, the entire structure can potentially be erected within approximately two weeks at an estimated cost of around £38,000, streamlining your building process.
WHOTS analysis
Our WHOTS verdict
An internal assessment of the opportunity to acquire, improve and create value.
43out of 100
Grade ELow opportunity
Confidence: LOW
This is a build opportunity rather than a renovation of an existing house: the photos show a development plot, proposed plans and a CGI, with no completed dwelling or interior to assess. The listing says full planning permission is in place, CIL has been settled and utilities are connected or available, which gives the project a useful head start; the proposed home and garden still need to be delivered.
Key opportunities
- Use the approved plans as a starting point for creating the proposed four-bedroom home, with scope to shape the build around your priorities.
- Develop the rough, vegetated plot into the proposed garden and driveway, rather than inheriting a finished landscape.
- Planning permission, settled CIL and existing or available utilities may simplify parts of the delivery process.
Key risks
- This is a full new-build delivery programme, not a cosmetic refresh: verify the approved scheme, site preparation, construction route and feasibility before committing.
- No completed dwelling or internal rooms are shown, so the proposed design and the condition and readiness of the site need to be checked against the plans and on site.
