As rare as hen's teeth, we offer you an opportunity to build your dream home just five minutes walk to the village on a rear site off the busy road. This is a perfect site for someone who wants to build something with flair and enough garden to enjoy without being a bind. For the spec builder this is the chance to build in a very desirable location or investors the chance to still be able to claim your interest on the mortgage. For anyone else who wants to build new - here is your chance. An added bonus is a tiny house that you may also want to negotiate with the vendor (this must be either removed or permitted to remain).
