Construction of a residential complex with 122 homes on The Street, Little Clacton, Clacton-on-Sea – England
We bring to your attention an attractive investment project — the construction of a residential complex of 98 homes in the prestigious district of Weeley in Little Clacton, located in the county of Essex, East Anglia. This project focuses on the full development cycle: from acquiring the plot with full planning permission to completing construction and subsequent sale or rental of the finished properties. A preliminary application has currently been submitted to increase the number to 122 units, which will replace some larger homes with two- and three-bedroom ones. This makes the project an excellent opportunity for investors focused on the UK residential real estate market, with outstanding potential for return on investment.
The project is located in a semi-rural area on The Street, in the highly sought-after Weeley, close to the seaside coastline. This tranquil location combines the beauty of nature with convenient access to infrastructure. Weeley is approximately 4 miles (about 6 km) from Clacton-on-Sea, 7 miles (about 11 km) from Frinton-on-Sea, 10-12 miles (about 16-19 km) from the major town of Colchester, 20 miles (about 32 km) from Ipswich, and approximately 60-70 miles (about 97-113 km) from London. Such a location provides a balance between seclusion and proximity to urban centers, with convenient transport links via major roads such as the A133 and B1441, and railway stations at Weeley and Thorpe-Le-Soken.

Detailed description
The project involves building 98 housing units, including houses and bungalows with three, four, and five bedrooms, with the possibility of expansion to 122 units by adding two- and three-bedroom homes. The site offers developers a unique opportunity to create an exceptional community in a picturesque setting surrounded by open fields. Thanks to its location in Weeley Heath, the project is in high demand among those seeking comfort in a semi-rural area with convenient access to the sea and urban amenities.
In Weeley itself, there are basic amenities: a convenience store (such as Co-op), a bakery, a garden center. For leisure and socializing, pubs and restaurants are available, including The Black Boy pub and restaurant, Cherry Tree Inn, Carriers Arms, The Queens Head, The Bear Inn, Bowling Green Pub, Lakeside Tavern. There is also a Village Hall for social events, meetings, and activities. A nearby park with a zip-line and play fields, as well as natural areas for walks. For education, Weeley has St Andrew’s CofE Primary School, and in neighboring Little Clacton — Compass Community School Essex (a specialized school for ages 11-17).
For a wider range of services, residents turn to nearby settlements. In Clacton-on-Sea (4 miles) there are supermarkets, high streets with brands, independent boutiques, coffee shops, restaurants, entertainment including Pleasure Pier, arcades, theaters, a golf club, and seaside promenades. In Frinton-on-Sea (7 miles) — additional shops and a quiet atmosphere. Colchester (10-12 miles) offers a full range of urban amenities, including schools, medical centers, and shopping. The transport infrastructure includes Weeley railway station (connections to Colchester in 25 minutes, Chelmsford in an hour, London in 90 minutes) and Thorpe-Le-Soken, bus routes to neighboring areas. Most residents prefer personal transport for daily commutes.
The investment project involves creating a modern residential complex that will harmoniously blend into the surrounding environment. The focus is on the full cycle: from site preparation and construction to subsequent sale or rental. This emphasizes the profit potential, given the growing interest in real estate in coastal and suburban areas of the UK.
