Savills is marketing two rare self-build plots in Buckinghamshire where buyers can choose between architect-designed homes.
The Goat House scheme in Stone is the creation of renowned architect Simon Shaw. He has produced two designs with the potential to meet Passivhaus standards.
The concept is intended to offer buyers a chance to be instrumental in the design and build of their new home, while avoiding the cost and rigours of the planning process.
The two ‘shovel ready’ plots have detailed planning consent and building regulations in place, conditions discharged, access arranged and core build costs mapped out in a bid to remove many of the hurdles of self-build.
The plans are for two houses of four or five bedrooms, each with a gross internal area of approximately 2,500 sq ft with large south-west facing gardens, extending to around 85ft.
Mr Shaw said: “In a world where we are surrounded by ‘anywhere’ architecture, the Goat House scheme aspires to be an example of where architectural excellence, sustainability, and innovation converge to redefine a modern development.”
Nicola Horner, who is marketing the Goat House on behalf of Savills residential development sales team, said: “It is a privilege to bring these two self-build plots to the market. Self-build is an incredibly appealing prospect for many, but pursuing a project alone comes with a level of risk and uncertainty that is often prohibitive.
“At the Goat House, Simon Shaw has created a thoughtful scheme that breaks down many of the barriers to building your own home. With detailed planning permission, along with many other important details in place, the plots are ready to build on from day one, with design packages available to make the journey as straightforward and predictable as possible.
“Purchasers can really take comfort in all of this, allowing them to enjoy the experience of building their own home.’
“Not only this, but Simon also happens to be a visionary architect. His designs are exceptional, offset by the stunning natural surroundings within which they are set.”
