Self-Build Behind A Pub With Access Through The Car Park

Project overview

A ground-up self-build on land bought behind the pub where the clients worked as live-in/managing landlords.

The challenge

The house would sit behind the pub, with the only access via the pub car park, and the clients’ role/income was linked to employment by the pub rather than ownership of it.

The solution

A lender was found willing to accept the location and access arrangement.

The outcome

The clients completed a difficult self-build placement where location and access would usually be major lender concerns.
