The package we are offering is quite unique, with each serviced building plot comes a planning package, with full planning permission.
Range of house types
There is a choice of house type and size offering plans to build detached four bedroom houses, three bedroom houses, three bedroom bungalows and a two bedroom bungalow. The plots are spacious with generous gardens, a driveway and most have either detached or integrated garages. The design has been carefully thought out to suit modern living, although you may amend the internal layout of the houses if you wish, giving you the chance to create your dream home.
Quality design to modern standards
The houses will be built of natural stone, off white self coloured render, stone quoins and stone cills to the windows. The roof will be of natural slate and chimneys, where specified, will be of natural stone. Planning permission has already been granted for solar panels to the roofs but it is not obligatory to install them. The windows will be hardwood effect reinforced uPVC with double glazed thermally efficient sealed units.
This brings individuality to each of the dwellings but keeping them in the appearance of the same family with the imaginative combination of the external materials.
It is anticipated that the heating and hot water will be by gas fired energy efficient condensing boilers feeding insulated hot water cylinders. The floor will be insulated and under-floor heating installed if required, the walls will be insulated in the cavity and with thermal lining and the roof will be highly insulated.
Fully-serviced
Each site is fully-serviced with gas, water, electricity, telephone, surface and mains water drainage. These services will be in place to each site so connection is easy. The development site will have finished and adopted access roads and pavements and street lighting.
They offer you a chance to self-build, with all the planning permission and service issues taken care of, removing stress and long delays.
Simply employ a builder and work can commence!
Countryside setting
The building plots are surrounded by green fields and trees, with the Cumbrian fells providing a scenic backdrop to the town of Alston nestled below. The Pennine Way footpath passes by offering beautiful country walks on your doorstep. There is an emphasis on nature with established mature trees being retained and with the addition of semi-mature trees and a natural stream forming a habitat for wildlife.
The development site will be enclosed with fences and planting to provide a safe, stylish and peaceful place to live.
