Steventon, Ludlow, SY8

A rare opportunity for a buyer to create a one-off home set in a desirable area on the edge of Ludlow. Accessed via a driveway (to be constructed) through a paddock, this remarkable plot is set in a field on the edge of Ludlow and is enclosed by mature hedges and trees with a gated access to the banks of the River Teme which sits below on which there are fishing rights.

Planning permission was granted in 2014 and a material start was made to ensure planning was kept live by the current owners. The proposed accommodation is for a substantial detached house under planning reference 13/01665/FUL which extends to a floor area of about 215 sq. meters and with a separate detached garage block with workshop attached.

It is understood that mains water and electricity are available to connect to subject to the necessary fees paid to the service providers. The drainage system has already been installed and the CIL payment relating to the planning permission has been settled. The house is set on the top end of the site with the meadow sloping gently away toward the river below.

There would be scope, subject to a revised application being permitted for alterations to the existing scheme.
