RobinH Posted February 28, 2023 Share Posted February 28, 2023 (edited) Hi Everyone, I’m looking to build a new property for my wife and I to live in, in our current garden. Once complete and plot divided, sell the original to clear the mortgage(s). It’s on a slope with planning only likely for single storey so looking to have garage and entrance in an excavated basement. Just at planning stage in Feb ‘23 so loads to do!

Happy Valley Posted February 28, 2023 Share Posted February 28, 2023 (edited) We have just done the same but in Cheshire. A steeping sloping site so our new home is 2 storey with the top storey 40% bigger than the ground floor. We started back in 2017 with a an architect and topography survey, got planning in late 2019 and started in Spring 2021 finishing about 18 months later when the old house sold. A great wealth of knowledge on here. Good luck with your project. Edited February 28, 2023 by Happy Valley Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
