Description
A building plot in Long Sutton is offered with full planning permission and construction drawings for a proposed five-bedroom country house of approximately 347m². The design combines a traditional central section with a timber-clad wing and a detached garage, joined by a glazed link. The plans also include a large open-plan kitchen, dining and living area, a principal bedroom suite with balcony, and additional flexible accommodation for guests or home working.
The L-shaped layout is designed to make use of the site's south-westerly and westerly outlook, with extensive glazing and access from the main living space to a rear terrace. The approved landscaping includes a south-facing guest garden, a rear courtyard and further outdoor seating areas. A gated entrance and boundary wall are also shown in the plans.
Long Sutton has a village shop and post office, primary school, farm shop and pub. Somerton and Langport are nearby for additional services, while the A303 is stated to be approximately 5.8 miles away. The opportunity is to acquire the plot and develop the consented scheme; construction and delivery of the proposed house would be required.

Grade ELow opportunity
Confidence: LOW
This is a building plot rather than a renovation of an existing house: the listing describes full planning permission and comprehensive drawings for a substantial five-bedroom country home, with a detached garage, landscaped outdoor spaces and views designed into the layout. The visualisations show the proposed scheme, not the plot’s current condition or construction progress, so verify the consent, its conditions and what is included before proceeding.
The score is held back by limited information on value and project economics, not by evidence that the asking price is dear: floor area for the purchase is missing, so value versus local £/sqf cannot yet be judged. The £500,000 asking price therefore needs more context before the opportunity can be assessed fully.
Key opportunities
- Take forward the approved scheme for a substantial, individually designed country residence, subject to verifying the permission and conditions.
- The L-shaped layout, glazed link and south-westerly and westerly outlook offer scope for a home shaped around light, views and sheltered outdoor living.
- The proposed detached garage, terraces and landscaped gardens extend the project beyond the house itself.
Key risks
- This is a substantial new-build programme, so construction scope, delivery timescale and overall project budget need careful assessment.
- The images are visualisations and do not establish the plot’s current condition or construction progress.
- The floor area needed to compare value against local £/sqf is missing.
