This property presents a distinctive opportunity for redevelopment, situated on an expansive 1.90-acre site ripe for investment and transformation. Located in an elevated yet sheltered area along a tranquil country lane, the property lies on the outskirts of the highly desirable village of Great Durnford. It’s conveniently positioned just 8 miles from Salisbury, known for its rich cultural offerings and diverse shopping options, and only 2 miles from Amesbury. The surrounding region is celebrated for outdoor activities such as walking and cycling, particularly through the scenic routes along the Woodford Valley.
Currently, the site features a yard with two modern steel-framed buildings. The planning permission allows for the construction of a bespoke detached home designed by reputable local architects, The Relph Ross Partnership. The proposed design offers an appealing contemporary living space over two floors, featuring generous accommodations that include an open-plan kitchen, dining, and living area that connects to garden spaces, alongside a snug and essential utility areas on the ground floor. The first floor is thoughtfully arranged with a master suite complete with en-suite bathroom and dressing room, three additional double bedrooms (two with en-suites), and a family bathroom.
Access to this plot is facilitated by an established entry point leading to a spacious driveway that can accommodate ample parking. A designated garden area offers purchasers the chance to personalize their outdoor space through landscaping to meet individual preferences. Given its size and previous use for arable cropping, there is potential for further development or agricultural use—such as converting areas into paddocks—making it suitable for equestrian interests.
New service connections for water and electricity will be necessary as part of the development process, while existing plans include sustainable solutions such as drainage via a sewage treatment plant, heating through an air-source heat pump, and solar panels installed on the roof to enhance energy efficiency.
Planning permission has been granted by Wiltshire Council for demolishing one existing building while converting another into residential space (Use Class C3). Interested parties can reference planning application number PL/2023/08703 for detailed insights regarding permissions granted on December 1st, 2023.
This property holds significant renovation potential in a coveted location while providing opportunities for both personal customization and investment growth in its expansive grounds. Viewings are available strictly by appointment through Symonds & Sampson LLP.
