A Rare Opportunity to Build Your Dream Home in Wiltshire
Welcome to Walnut Grove — an exclusive serviced building plot in the peaceful village of Cholderton, just outside Salisbury. This unique opportunity offers the freedom to design and create your own bespoke home in one of Wiltshire’s most desirable rural settings.
The plot is serviced and benefits from planning permission for a substantial detached residence. Buyers can choose to follow the pre-approved design or, if they wish to create something entirely bespoke, reapply for planning with their own architect’s concept.
The Plot
The showcase opportunity, with generous proportions and countryside surroundings.
- Plot size: 0.6 acres (approx.)
- Permitted house size: up to 2,134 sq ft
- Bedrooms: 4 (depending on design)
- Stamp Duty Saving: significant versus buying new-build equivalents
- Potential Equity Gain: strong uplift based on comparable homes in the area
This plot gives buyers the chance to create a truly individual family home, with scope to tailor every aspect — from layout to finishes — to suit their lifestyle.
The Experience
This plot comes with the benefit of an already approved house design, providing a straightforward and secure path to your new home. The approved scheme has been thoughtfully planned to suit the location, offering a modern family home with balanced proportions and flexible living spaces. Buyers can simply build to this design and customise internal finishes to their taste, ensuring convenience and peace of mind.
Alternatively, for those who wish to pursue a completely bespoke vision, there is the option to design a new property from scratch. In this case, a fresh planning application would need to be submitted — opening up full creative freedom while still benefitting from the security of a serviced site.
The Location
Cholderton is a highly desirable Wiltshire village, positioned right on the border with Hampshire. This unique setting offers the best of both worlds: the peace and character of a conservation area village, combined with the connectivity and amenities of neighbouring Hampshire towns.
- Andover – ~8.5 miles
- Salisbury – ~9.2 miles
- London Waterloo: just over an hour by train (via Grateley Station)
- Local Amenities: traditional village pub, farm shop, primary school, and countryside walks all close by
Surrounded by established character homes — including the neighbouring Walnut House, a substantial residence valued at nearly £2m — Walnut Grove offers the opportunity to create your own statement property in an enviable Wiltshire location.
Significant Stamp Duty Savings
With a traditional home purchase, SDLT is charged on the full market value of the property. With custom and self-build, SDLT is only payable on the plot price, not the eventual value of the completed home.
