Land for sale

Keelings Road, Dengie, Southminster CM0

A truly rare and exceptional development opportunity in the heart of the Dengie Peninsula, where opportunities to create a brand-new dwelling are almost unheard of. New build consent in this location is exceptionally scarce, making this a once-in-a-generation chance to design and construct a bespoke home in one of the area’s most desirable and tightly protected settings.

The plot occupies a prime, elevated position on the edge of open countryside, offering space, privacy and a sense of permanence that cannot be replicated by modern estates or infill schemes. Planning permission has been granted on appeal for the demolition of the existing barn and the construction of a new dwelling, allowing the purchaser to create a contemporary, energy-efficient home tailored precisely to their own requirements.

The setting combines the tranquillity of rural life with the unique character of the Dengie Peninsula, renowned for its open skies, big landscapes and unspoilt environment. The location provides commanding coastal and estuarine views extending as far as Kent, while also enjoying beautiful outlooks over surrounding farmland and the nearby lake.

In a planning environment where replacement dwellings and new homes in the open countryside are increasingly difficult to secure, this consent represents an outstanding asset. Sites of this quality, with permission in place and such a compelling setting, rarely come to the market and are unlikely to be repeated for many years to come.

Agent note: The large agricultural barn adjacent, which is included in the sale, can be refurbished or replaced with a cart lodge (subject to planning). Please enquire for further information.
