Planning permission for three dwellings | Attractive rural hamlet location | Individual self-build development opportunity | Farmhouse, barn and cottage designs | Approved access and infrastructure works | Courtyard-style development layout approved | Surrounded by open countryside | Easy access to Hereford and Marden | Landscaped setting with mature hedgerows | Rare small-scale development opportunity <br/> <br/> <br/> <br/>A rare opportunity to acquire a prime residential development site with planning permission for three individual self-build dwellings, set within the attractive rural hamlet of The Vauld, near Marden. <br/> <br/>Occupying a generous parcel of land in a highly desirable countryside setting, the site benefits from a hybrid planning consent granted by Herefordshire Council for the creation of three bespoke detached homes, together with a new access road, infrastructure, landscaping and associated works. Planning permission was granted on 20th May 2026 under application number 253389. <br/> <br/>The approved scheme has been carefully designed to reflect the character and heritage of the surrounding area, drawing inspiration from traditional Herefordshire farmsteads and agricultural buildings. The three plots are arranged in a courtyard-style setting and each offers a distinct architectural identity whilst maintaining a cohesive and sympathetic overall appearance. <br/> <br/>Plot 1 is envisaged as a substantial farmhouse-style dwelling, inspired by traditional local farmhouses and featuring a timber-framed design with rendered infill panels, stone detailing and slate roofing. Plot 2 offers a contemporary interpretation of a traditional threshing barn, whilst Plot 3 takes influence from the character of an 18th Century cottage with red brick elevations and a natural slate roof. <br/> <br/>The site enjoys a peaceful rural position surrounded by open countryside, mature hedgerows and established landscaping, whilst remaining conveniently accessible to Hereford, Leominster and the wider road network. The Vauld is recognised for its attractive rural character and historic farmstead setting, with a number of nearby listed buildings contributing to the area’s charm and heritage. <br/> <br/>Planning permission is granted for three self-build/custom-build dwellings, subject to Reserved Matters approval, drainage and infrastructure conditions, ecological enhancements, landscaping requirements, and compliance with the approved access and visibility arrangements. <br/>Herefordshire Council application number 253389, granted 20th May 2026.
