The landowner is to provide access from the road into the plot. The permission requires the dwelling to be delivered as a self-build or custom-build home under the Self-build and Custom Housebuilding Act 2015, and buyers should check the planning conditions and associated requirements before proceeding. Further details are available from Huntingdonshire District Council under planning reference 26/00139/OUT.
The proposed home is intended to be designed and built to the purchaser's specification, subject to the necessary consents. Colne is approximately five miles from St Ives, 12 miles from Cambridge city centre and 12 miles from Huntingdon railway station. The listing states that the plot is freehold; EPC and council tax details are not applicable at this stage.
WHOTS analysis
Our WHOTS verdict
An internal assessment of the opportunity to acquire, improve and create value.
55out of 100
Grade DWeak opportunity
Confidence: LOW
At £200,000, the plot is priced at about £98 per sq ft against a local average of £327, making the asking price a standout acquisition opportunity on the supplied comparison. It comes with outline permission for a detached two-storey home of around 2,042 sq ft, plus an integral garage, and the seller will provide road access into the plot.
This is a self-build opportunity rather than a renovation of an existing house: the grassed, road-fronted plot and illustrative plans offer a starting point for creating a bespoke home. The permission requires the dwelling to meet the self-build or custom-build condition, and the detailed planning requirements and project feasibility should be checked before proceeding.
Key opportunities
- Acquire the plot at an asking price that is substantially below the local average on a price-per-square-foot basis.
- Create a bespoke two-storey detached home of approximately 2,042 sq ft, with an integral garage.
- Start from a grassed plot with road frontage; the seller will provide access, and illustrative plans and elevations are supplied.
Key risks
- Verify the outline permission, detailed planning requirements and feasibility, including the condition requiring delivery as a self-build or custom-build home.
