Description

This development opportunity in Painswick, Gloucestershire, presents a 0.36-acre plot with existing C3 residential permission, allowing for the replacement of a detached dwelling with a modern, high-quality single residence. The site is situated within the Cotswolds Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB) and Countryside, outside defined settlement boundaries. The existing use and permission provide a strong foundation for a policy-compliant replacement dwelling, leveraging the site's Previously Developed Land (PDL) status. The plot offers a unique opportunity to create a bespoke residential redevelopment that enhances design, scale, and sustainability, subject to planning consent. The local planning authority, Stroud District Council, supports replacement dwellings that respect the AONB's character, making this site viable for a high-quality redevelopment. The emerging local plan encourages small-scale windfall development on PDL in countryside locations, prioritizing exemplary design, net biodiversity gain, and high energy efficiency standards. Recent planning precedents demonstrate support for sensitively designed projects using Cotswold stone, low-profile massing, and sustainable features. The site's PDL status and existing C3 permission support a replacement dwelling with potential for up to 30% increased GIA, subject to design and AONB compliance.
