Key information
Features and description
On behalf of the landowners, Bidwells is pleased to offer the opportunity to secure a Conditional Contract, Option Agreement or Promotion Agreement for a residential development scheme in the sought-after location of Spellbrook, Bishop’s Stortford.
The site extends to 3.539 acres (1.432 hectares) and is currently used as grazing land. The site is neighboured by lower density housing to the south and east, a car garage to the north east and farmland to the north and west.
The site has not been the subject of any previous planning applications however it was submitted as part of East Hertfordshire's Call for Sites process.
The EHDC Development Plan was adopted in 2019. The Council cannot currently demonstrate a 5YHLS (3.4-3.7 years - February 2025 AMR), meaning the presumption in
favour of sustainable development is engaged.
A Regulation 18 consultation on the emerging Local Plan is anticipated in early 2026. This represents an important early opportunity to promote the Site within the plan-making process, ahead of subsequent stages.
Notably, planning permission (Ref: 3/21/1178/FUL) has been granted for seven residential units on designated Green Belt land immediately east of the Site, demonstrating precedent for development in this location.
Offers are to be submitted in writing before 12 noon, Tuesday 17 February 2026
