This listing presents a plot of land in Great Barton, Suffolk, for £450,000. The property is described as a fantastic opportunity to build a grand design property. The listing highlights the land’s prime location and its approximate one-acre size. Images of the plot reveal an overgrown area with some clearing already done. There is also a partially cleared area, suggesting some preparation work may have commenced. However, the land requires substantial clearing and preparation before construction. The area offers a balance of rural life and convenient access to Bury St Edmunds, which offers a wider range of amenities, including schools. Nearby schools include Great Barton Church of England Primary Academy (close proximity) and others in Bury St Edmunds, accessible by car. Transport links are available via Thurston and Bury St Edmunds train stations. Further information, especially concerning specific details of the plot’s permitted usage, build restrictions and planning permissions, and detailed comparative local land prices for similar sized plots, are needed for a more comprehensive evaluation. The absence of this makes it challenging to definitively assess if the asking price reflects the market value. Overall, this represents a potential development opportunity, but buyers need to factor in the extensive preparatory works required before commencing any construction. Prospective buyers should conduct their own due diligence to determine the viability of the project. This would include obtaining planning permission, surveying the land, and obtaining detailed costings for all necessary preparatory work.

Therefore, we give this property 5 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
