Description

A development site on the southern edge of Felsted, offered with planning permission for three new homes within the grounds of a period farmhouse. The approved courtyard-style scheme comprises Gate House, approximately 2,152 sq ft over one and a half storeys, Stable, approximately 807 sq ft on one level, and Barn, approximately 1,431 sq ft over one and a half storeys. The designs provide three- and four-bedroom accommodation and are intended to sit alongside the farmhouse in a farmstead arrangement. The three proposed homes are each shown with private gardens and associated parking. Access is planned from Chelmsford Road via a shared private driveway with Millbanks. The site extends to approximately 1.4 acres, and services suited to the development are understood to be available nearby. Planning permission was granted by Uttlesford District Council in April 2026 under reference UTT/26/0475/OP; further scheme information is set out in the supporting planning statement. The elevated setting is described as having north- and west-facing countryside views. Felsted has a village shop and post office, doctor’s surgery, primary school and a range of other local amenities. Rail services to London Liverpool Street are available from Braintree, Chelmsford and Stansted Airport, with road access to the A120 and M11.

WHOTS analysis

Our WHOTS verdict

An internal assessment of the opportunity to acquire, improve and create value.

56out of 100
Grade DWeak opportunity

Confidence: LOW

At £600,000, the asking price is 29.5% below the local average per square foot, making the acquisition price a clear strength. The standout value-add is the consented scheme for three homes in a courtyard-style farmstead layout, with countryside views and maintained grounds adding to the setting. The overall score is still a D: the project’s condition and renovation economics are not established from the available interior information, so the consent and delivery requirements need careful checking.

Key opportunities

  • Acquire at an asking price well below the local average £/sqf.
  • Deliver the approved three-home scheme, subject to verifying the consent, conditions and delivery requirements.
  • Build on the proposed courtyard layout and the site’s elevated countryside setting, with established trees and hedging visible in the grounds.
