Plotting with Success

Posted on

There are lots of benefits to buying plot and building your own home. If you just can't find the dream home you've always wanted, building your own could be the best option for you.

Many plots for sale come with Planning Permission in Principle known formerly as Outline Planning Permission , and whilst this may determine the size and some aspects of exterior of the property its likely you can make alterations to tailor make the design to your own needs. If the plot does not already have permission then you can design house of dreams.

This week's Press and Journal highlights the benefits of self build and considers what you need to do to before embarking on this journey.

Press and Journal My Home 22nd April 2014

At Bowlts we can help you achieve your dream; we have plots for sale, an Architect to design your dream house and a Land Surveyor to carry out that essential site survey.

We very much believe in a thorough site analysis of your plot and this assists with achieving a design that is site specific in terms of location, use of natural landscape, views, solar gain etc and allowing the new home to sit comfortably in the plot and with any surrounding settlement pattern.
