New self-build opportunity launches in Chorleywood

CBH launches Lawford Close, an exclusive serviced plot. It offers the opportunity to create a bespoke contemporary home in one of Hertfordshire’s most desirable villages.

CBH has announced the launch of Lawford Close, a rare self-build opportunity in the sought-after village of Chorleywood, Hertfordshire.

Lawford Close offers buyers the chance to build an architect-designed home while tailoring the layout and specification to their lifestyle. The serviced plot benefits from detailed planning permission for a striking split-level, four-bedroom home.

With approximately 415 sq m of private land, the development has been carefully designed to respond to its unique hillside setting. The approved home features generous open-plan living spaces, extensive glazing, multiple terraces and flexible accommodation arranged across several levels.

Lawford Close enables buyers to personalise significant aspects of their future home, from internal layouts and kitchen design through to bathrooms, flooring, lighting and finishes. This results in a home that reflects their individual needs rather than a standard developer specification.

The location is a key selling point

Situated within walking distance of Chorleywood village centre and station, the development combines the tranquillity of a mature residential location. Direct Metropolitan Line and Chiltern Rail services provide straightforward access into central London. Meanwhile, the M25 offers convenient road connections across the South East.

The location offers buyers the ideal balance between countryside living and modern convenience. Chorleywood Common, the Chess Valley and the wider Chiltern landscape offer extensive walking, cycling and outdoor recreation. The village itself is renowned for its independent cafés, restaurants, boutiques and highly regarded schools.

Lawford Close gives discerning buyers the chance to create a long term family home in a location where opportunities like this are becoming increasingly rare.

CBH commented, “Lawford Close represents exactly the type of opportunity we’re passionate about bringing to market. It combines an exceptional location with contemporary architecture. It gives buyers the freedom to create a home that’s truly their own. Opportunities to secure a serviced plot with planning permission in Chorleywood are exceptionally rare, making this a compelling proposition for anyone considering self or custom build.”
