Bozeat

A rare opportunity to acquire a substantial redevelopment plot extending to approximately 0.79 acres, set in a non-estate, semi-rural location close to the sought-after village of Bozeat. The site benefits from detailed planning consent for the demolition of the existing dilapidated dwelling and the erection of an impressive five-bedroom detached house with a double garage. The proposed new house will extend to approximately 3,939 sq ft (GIA) arranged over three floors, offering an ideal self-build or bespoke development opportunity.

The plot enjoys a peaceful setting while remaining conveniently positioned for access to nearby amenities in Bozeat. It lies approximately 1.5 miles from Bozeat, a well-regarded village offering a primary school, local shop, public house, church, playing fields, and a central green used for community events. The nearby village of Harrold is approximately 3 miles away, providing further facilities. Bozeat itself is situated around 6 miles south of Wellingborough on the A509, offering excellent road links to Northampton, Milton Keynes and Bedford, making it particularly attractive for commuters.

Planning application was submitted under reference 26/00522/FUL, validated on 25th February 2026, for the demolition of the existing dwelling and replacement with a substantial detached residence. This application is a resubmission of a previously approved scheme (ref NW/23/00378/FUL), with a current determination date of 17th July 2026. Interested parties are advised to make their own enquiries in relation to any potential CIL liability.

The existing property on site is dilapidated, overgrown and in need of demolition to facilitate redevelopment. Adjacent to the main plot, is an additional parcel of land extending to approximately 0.34 acres, which includes a dilapidated brick building of around 700 sq ft. This building benefits from consent for conversion to a two-bedroom dwelling, and is available by separate negotiation.

The main plot has historically benefited from mains water and electricity connections, while foul drainage was previously discharged into a cesspit. Prospective purchasers should satisfy themselves regarding the condition, capacity and availability of services for any future development.

The site is offered freehold and represents an excellent opportunity for self-builders, developers or those seeking to create a bespoke home in a desirable location. Viewing is strictly by appointment through Compass Land and Development on 01234 351577. Please note that the existing structure is unsafe and must not be entered under any circumstances.
