Lower Kingsdown Nr Bath

A rare opportunity to acquire a substantial plot of approximately 0.4 acres in the highly sought-after Kingsdown village, offering planning permission for a contemporary 4/5 bedroom detached residence designed to maximise breathtaking views across the Bybrook valley towards Colerne.

This exceptional plot presents a unique prospect for either a small developer or an individual seeking a self-build option to create a truly bespoke home. Planning permission was granted in October 2021 under Application Reference Number: PL/2021/04209, detailing a thoughtfully designed contemporary property that blends modern architecture with its stunning natural surroundings. The proposed residence is conceived to take full advantage of the panoramic views, promising a home filled with natural light and an enviable connection to the outdoors. 

Nestled in a tranquil countryside location, the plot offers a peaceful retreat while remaining incredibly accessible. It is situated within 1 mile of Bathford village, providing convenient access to excellent local amenities. Further amenities are available in nearby Box with primary school, doctor’s surgery, supermarket, post office, pubs and restaurants. Kingsdown is surrounded by magnificent countryside with a network of footpaths and trails throughout this designated Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.

Transport links include the convenience of bus routes to Bath and various market towns close by. Bathford village is home to a popular local primary school, a volunteer run local shop, excellent church and charming pub. Kingsdown itself has a popular golf club, The Swan Inn, and even a private swimming pool, all contributing to a high quality of life. For broader connections, mainline rail stations in Chippenham and Bath offer direct links to London Paddington in around 1 hour, making this an ideal location for those seeking a balance between rural serenity and urban accessibility.

Further plans and detailed information are available online or upon request from the agent, providing a comprehensive understanding of this remarkable development opportunity. Mains services are connected to the site, which has recently been cleared back for viewing and the current 3 bedroom home will need to be demolished.
