Croft Lane, Carlton Husthwaite, Thirsk

An exclusive development site with outline planning permission for four new detached bungalows in the sought after and highly desirable rural village of Carlton Husthwaite which is on the western edge of the Hambleton Hills sitting between the towns of Thirsk and Easingwold.

Land To The West Of Croft Lane, Carlton Husthwaite - A prime residential development site with outline planning permission for 4 self/custom build detached bungalows in the sought after and highly desirable village of Carlton Husthwaite on the western edge of the Hambleton Hills.

Outline planning permission has been granted for the erection of 4 self/custom build bungalows (Use Class C3) with all matters reserved except access.

Situation And Amenities - Carlton Husthwaite is an unspoilt and tranquil rural village on the western edge of the Hambleton Hills with the backdrop of the North York Moors National Park and the White Horse at Kilburn. The site is situated to the north of the village on the western side of Croft Lane with the A19 York-Teesside trunk road approximately 1 mile to the west with easy access to the A1(M) and the wider motorway network. The commercial centres of Teesside, York, Harrogate and Leeds are all within commuting distance and there are main line railway stations situated at York, Northallerton and Thirsk which provide services to London, Newcastle and Edinburgh as well as the Trans Pennine route.

A full range of local services can be found in both Thirsk (6 miles) and Helmsley (11 miles) as well as the popular Georgian market town of Easingwold (6 miles).

Description - The property comprises an undeveloped “Greenfield” site (currently arable) with open boundaries to the north and west with a mature hedge along the eastern boundary and a combination of hedges/garden fencing to the south. The total site area is approximately 0.81 acres and is rectangular in shape with a height above sea level of approximately 55 metres. The completed dwellings will have an attractive east/west aspect overlooking open farmland to the west. The indicative plans illustrate a scheme of 4 detached bungalows.

Unit Description Floor Area
Unit 1 Detached 3 bed bungalow 117 sqm 1259 sqft
Unit 2 Detached 3 bed bungalow 117 sqm 1259 sqft
Unit 3 Detached 2 bed bungalow 100 sqm 1076 sqft
Unit 4 Detached 4 bed bungalow 137 sqm 1474 sqft
Total 471 sqm 5068 sqft

Planning - Outline planning permission was granted on appeal by the Planning Inspectorate on 22nd January 2025 (ref: APP/U2750/W/24/3350480), following refusal by Hambleton District Council (ref: ZB23/02482/OUT), for the development
of 4 no. self/custom build bungalows (Use Class C3). The permission approves access, with all other matters reserved for future approval, including appearance, layout, scale, and landscaping.

The scheme is being promoted in accordance with national and local self/custom build objectives. It is envisaged that a developer or master builder will carry out the enabling works (access, drainage, and services) before plots are brought forward individually. Following this, the homes may be delivered in one of two ways:

• As self-build plots, where individual purchasers acquire a serviced plot and appoint their own builder, or
• As custom build homes, where purchasers choose a plot and commission the developer to build a home tailored to their needs.

To facilitate this approach, a Section 73 application has been submitted to North Yorkshire Council seeking to vary a number of planning conditions to enable phased delivery. This allows enabling works (Phase 1) to be discharged and implemented separately from the delivery of individual plots (Phase 2), which may proceed individually as Phases 2A–2D.

The application is supported by a Phasing Plan (ref: 121-PB-XX-XX-DR-A-1003XX) which sets out the intended sequence of development and supports a flexible, plot-by-lot delivery model in line with self/custom build principles.
Reserved Matters Applications can be submitted on a per-plot basis, allowing each home to be designed and brought forward independently, subject to compliance with overarching planning conditions and any approved design code.
