An exceptional one off opportunity to build an architect designed Paragraph 84 house set in about 1.03 ac of land. Description The Plot PLANNING REF: 25/01626/FUL.

The site extends to about 1.03 acres and enjoys a gently elevated position with far-reaching views over rolling Worcestershire countryside.

Mature hedgerows, established trees, and open pastureland provide a naturally private setting while maintaining a strong visual connection to the surrounding landscape.

The orientation of the plot has been carefully considered to maximise natural light throughout the day, with expansive glazing in the approved design framing panoramic rural vistas and spectacular sunsets.

A thoughtfully designed approach and landscaping scheme will create an impressive sense of arrival and a seamless transition between architecture and nature.

The Property The consented dwelling represents a unique fusion of contemporary design and environmental sensitivity.

The proposed home is conceived as a series of elegant, low-profile pavilions linked by glazed walkways, allowing the building to settle harmoniously into its landscape.

The design makes extensive use of sustainable materials and technologies, including high-performance insulation, air-source heat pumps, and photovoltaic panels, ensuring minimal environmental impact and long-term efficiency.

Internally, the layout has been designed to offer open, free-flowing spaces with an emphasis on natural light and views.

Generous living areas open directly onto terraces and gardens, creating a strong sense of indoor-outdoor living, while private bedroom suites provide quiet retreat zones.

The principal suite enjoys a commanding outlook across the surrounding countryside and features a luxurious en suite and dressing area.

Excellent transport links connect the area to Worcester (23.8 miles), Birmingham (33.5 miles), and the wider Midlands, making it ideal for both full-time residence and weekend retreat.
