Description

This 0.1-acre plot in Gainsford End presents a noteworthy opportunity for investors or developers seeking to create a new dwelling in a picturesque rural setting. Currently, the site features an existing structure that was previously a mission hall, which could be refurbished or replaced entirely, depending on your vision for the property. The land is characterized by its gated access from the main road, offering both seclusion and convenience. Bordered by woodland on one side and open fields at the rear, this tranquil location is complemented by proximity to local towns such as Great Yeldham and Sible Hedingham, just 3.5 and 4.5 miles away respectively, providing essential services and amenities. The site already benefits from mains electric and water supplies, although sewage management through a septic tank may require consideration when planning renovations or new constructions. With granted Reserved Matters Planning Consent for a four-bedroom detached dwelling as of December 2023, this property is primed for development into a desirable home that takes full advantage of its scenic surroundings.
