Land To The North Of, Steventon New Road, Ludlow, Shropshire, SY8

Building your own home in Ludlow, Shropshire, offers the unique opportunity to create a personalised living space in one of the most picturesque and historically rich towns in the UK. Known for its medieval charm, stunning countryside views, and a vibrant food scene, Ludlow provides a perfect blend of rural tranquillity and cultural activity.

The town’s strong sense of community, alongside its proximity to major transport links like the A49 and train services to nearby cities, ensures that you can enjoy a peaceful, slower pace of life without being too far removed from modern amenities.

The building plot located on Steventon New Road in Ludlow represents an exciting opportunity for self-builders or developers looking to construct a bespoke home in a desirable edge-of-town location. Encompassing approximately 0.35 acres, the plot offers generous space for a detached dwelling with ample scope for gardens, landscaping, and parking.

The site benefits from full planning consent, granted by Shropshire Council under reference 25/00347/FUL, for the erection of a contemporary residential dwelling. The approved plans propose a spacious house with a gross internal floor area of 195 square metres (approximately 2,100 square feet). This allows for a well-sized family home with flexibility in layout, potentially incorporating open-plan living areas, multiple bedrooms, and modern amenities across two storeys, subject to the approved design.

A key consideration for potential purchasers is the Community Infrastructure Levy (CIL) liability, which has been calculated at £27,229.80. This sum contributes to local infrastructure funding as part of the planning process. However, it is worth noting that exemptions may be available for self-builders, provided the appropriate application is made and conditions are met.
