Key features

  • Planning consent for five dwellings
  • Wonderful, semi-rural setting
  • 1.4 acre site (STS).

Description

An exciting residential redevelopment opportunity for five individual dwellings, following the conversion of the existing buildings, situated in a fabulous edge-of-village setting.

The site is approximately 1.4 acres and has private access from Caxton Road via a long, sweeping driveway. Formally a commercial site with redundant buildings for conversion, and the creation of an interesting, unique residential scheme of houses with private gardens, communal spaces, and parking.

Planning:
Detailed planning was granted in June 2026 under reference 26/00698/FUL for Change of use to residential, conversion and alteration of existing buildings (including partial demolition) to form 5 dwellings, provision of garden, parking and bin storage areas.

The buyer must satisfy themselves regarding the planning consent and all conditions. It is the buyer's responsibility to discharge all planning conditions.

Community Infrastructure Levy & S.106:
There are no Community Infrastructure Levy (CIL) payment, or S.106 contributions due under the current planning permission.

The scheme is exempt from Biodiversity Net Gain (BNG), subject to de minimis.

The buyer must covenant to construct the consented scheme; non-material or minor amendments will be considered and not unreasonably refused by the seller.

Services:
There is mains electricity, water, and drainage to the site, but it is the buyer's responsibility to make their own enquiries regarding the suitability of existing services and also the costs associated with the installation, upgrading, and connecting of all services.

Rights of Way:
The driveway (edged red on the aerial photo plan) is being included in the sale. We are advised that the seller, two adjoining landowners, and two properties nearby for emergency use only, all have the right of way over the driveway edged in red. Further details are available.

About Gray & Toynbee, Cambridge

It's time to shake up the way we sell and let property. People have put up with inefficiency in agency for so long because there's been no alternative, in fact agency is often seen as a necessary evil - until now. We also believe that property shouldn't be complicated and doesn't need smoke or mirrors to be done well.

That's why at G&T we use common sense and just like to do things properly - we get to know you and your needs; we work hard to find the perfect target audience; and we act at the right time.

It's simple, smooth and, most importantly, it works.

Property, properly.

From the ground up, Gray & Toynbee has been created, brick by brick, based on the foundations of considerable experiences to offer partnership with our clients in order to achieve the best possible result. This may be a swift sale, a long term let, the highest sales price or the security of knowing your biggest asset is in the safest hands.

The property market has changed significantly in recent years, primarily in the way that people buy or rent properties. However, the way traditional agency works hasn't changed with it. Agents don't have little black books of buyers or renters. We no longer create the market. You could almost go as far as to say agents don't sell houses anymore, the market does that

What we'll do at Gray & Toynbee is bring the right market to your front door and then use that market to generate the best possible result. We will use tech to improve efficiency and compliance, but we won't use it to distance ourselves from our clients. We'll use it to integrate us more with you. We'll be honest about what we can and what we can't do, about where we can exert influence and where we cant. We won't do different things to our competitors, we'll just do those things differently

What we are setting out to do is not revolutionary. Its evolutionary. We seek to partner with our clients to focus on the areas where we can really add value.
