LOCATION
The property is located to the south-eastern built edge of the settlement of Stokenchurch, a village and civil parish within the unitary authority of Buckinghamshire Council. Stokenchurch is strategically positioned adjacent to the M40, joining Oxford to London and located approximately 7-miles west of High Wycombe and approximately 17-miles southeast of Oxford. Oxford is a regional city hub providing an extensive range of services and facilities including shops, restaurants, banks, sports centre, retail parks and supermarkets. Facilities in Stokenchurch include a Tesco Express store, a primary school, a community centre with sporting facilities, public house, coffee shop and post office.

PROPERTY
The property extends to approximately 9.09 acres (3.68 hectares) of arable farmland, largely enclosed by mature hedgerows and scattered boundary trees. It adjoins residential garden boundaries to the north-west, with existing barns at Mill House, to the north projecting into the field. A wooded bank separates the property from the M40 to the north. A connection from the development scheme will provide access to the National Highways' footpath and cycle path via the existing footbridge over the M40, providing pedestrian access into the village. To the south, beyond an established hedgerow, lies "Giles Yard", from which a construction materials supplier operates. The south eastern boundary is not defined on the ground and currently extends across adjoining farmland. Access to the site is provided via Mill Road, between Nos. 32 and 34 Mill Road. The topography of the property is gently sloping with a gradual fall in levels toward the southern boundary.

The Local Planning Authority is Buckinghamshire Council. The property benefits from outline planning permission (planning reference: 22/07149/OUT) for up to 65 dwellings and associated works.

It is however noted that the housing mix is to be determined at reserved matters stage. The outline planning permission also provides for planting, and open space specifically to the northeast and southeast of the property, as well as two attenuation basins. Access into the property is proposed to comprise of a 5.5-meter width carriageway with pedestrian access located to the southern side of the carriageway. A completed S106 agreement dated 19th March 2026 is available and confirms the affordable housing provisions and associated contributions.
