Description

Location

Detailed planning permission for two detached 2no. bed bungalows

Site area of approximately 0.52 acres (0.21 Hectares)

Bruton Knowles have been formally instructed to market a development plot with full planning permission for two 2no. bedroom detached bungalows.

The land is divided into two distinct parcels. The development Land, Lot A, positioned to the west of the site, benefits from detailed planning permission for the construction of two detached bungalows. The design reflects planning guidance to minimise overlooking of neighbouring properties. Longacre, Lot B, located at the eastern end, includes an existing detached bungalow in need of refurbishment.

The site is easily accessible via an existing driveway off Westland View, providing direct vehicular access to both Lot A and Lot B. Surface water drainage is managed via an on-site ditch within the site boundary, which connects to a culverted watercourse and discharges into the village stream, offering a sustainable outfall. Foul drainage for the existing bungalow connects to the adopted main in the road, while the proposed bungalows, located at a lower level, will require individual pumps to lift flows to a point where they can discharge into the same system.

The scheme has been designed to retain existing boundary features and respond sensitively to the surrounding residential character.

The site is located off Westfield View, situated in the centre of the village of Luston, approximately 3 miles north of Leominster and 15 miles south of Ludlow. Leominster town centre provides a comprehensive range of amenities including primary and secondary schools, supermarkets, convenience stores, independent shops, banks, GP surgeries, dental practices, churches, post office, public houses, cafés and leisure facilities. The town serves as a key local centre for surrounding villages and rural communities.

Leominster Town Centre - 3 miles
Ludlow - 15 miles
Hereford - 16 miles
Worcester - 28 miles
Birmingham - 45 miles

The site lies within the administrative boundary of Herefordshire Council and is located within the Luston Conservation Area, where full planning applications are required for new development.

Planning permission was granted under reference P210358/F for the erection of two detached bungalows, demolition of a redundant shop building, and formation of a new access. The application was submitted on 01/02/2021 and subsequently approved on 09/09/2025

The approved development has been carefully designed to respect the character of the Luston Conservation Area, with a layout and architectural approach that responds sensitively to its surroundings.

Lot A comprises two detached single-storey bungalows, each totalling 1,115 sq.ft, located on the western section of the site. These dwellings are positioned to reduce overlooking and visual impact on neighbouring properties, particularly those on Westland View. Vehicular access is taken from a new driveway off Westland View, relocated westward to improve separation from the existing bungalow. Each bungalow includes two bedrooms, open-plan living space, a carport with EV charging, and private amenity areas including allotments with integrated shed, cycle storage, and bin/recycling facilities.

The planning consent is subject to a s106 Agreement. It is understood that a phosphate credit payment totalling £16,940 is to be paid by the purchaser.

LOT A - Freehold offers are invited for the residential development site. Unconditional offers are invited. The guide price is £140,000.

LOT B - Freehold offers are invited. The guide price for the property is £250,000.

Simultaneous offers for Lot A & Lot B will be considered and encouraged.
