Residential Development Land for Sale at Auction in Datchet
A rare opportunity to acquire freehold development land in Datchet, within the Royal Borough of Windsor and Maidenhead, is coming to auction this October. Offered by The Landsite member Terra Firma Auctions, the two vacant plots at Whites Lane provide an opportunity for developers and self build buyers looking for land in a well connected Berkshire location.
The two plots, known as The Eton (Plot A) and The Windsor (Plot B), each extend to approximately 0.21 acres. Both plots are being offered at a guide price of £225,000 each, subject to the auction terms and conditions.
Two Vacant Plots for Development For Sale at Auction
Development Potential in Datchet
The land is being sold without planning permission, with no previous planning applications having been sought or refused on the site. Any future residential development would therefore be subject to obtaining the necessary planning and other statutory permissions.
According to the current marketing information, the site has potential for a single five bedroom detached residential dwelling on each plot. The indicative gross development value is stated at approximately £1.5 million for one five bedroom house, or around £3 million based on two five bedroom detached dwellings.
For developers, this creates an opportunity to acquire a sizeable residential development site in a desirable part of Berkshire. For self build buyers, the generous plot sizes could also provide scope to create a substantial detached home with private outdoor space, subject to planning approval.
Well Connected Berkshire Location
The plots occupy a position on Whites Lane in Datchet, a riverside village within the Royal Borough of Windsor and Maidenhead. The location combines village surroundings with access to major transport links and nearby towns. Datchet railway station is approximately half a mile away, while the M4 motorway provides convenient connections across the wider Thames Valley and towards London. Heathrow Airport is also within easy reach.
The location benefits from proximity to local amenities and schools, including Eton End School and Churchmead School. Windsor, with its historic town centre, retail, leisure and employment opportunities, is also nearby.
Existing Services and Freehold Ownership
One of the notable features of the land is that existing service connections are already available. The listing states that the plots have connections for water, gas, electricity and mains sewage, potentially providing an important starting point for any future development.
Both plots are freehold and benefit from direct private access from Whites Lane. The land is being sold with vacant possession and with no overage.
Upcoming Auction Date
The property is being offered by Terra Firma Auctions on Thursday 22 October 2026, with the auction taking place online. The lots are being offered on an unconditional basis, meaning successful purchasers will be legally bound to proceed with the purchase when the auction conditions are satisfied.
Pre auction offers may also be considered by the seller, subject to the same auction conditions, registration requirements and legal terms.
Potential purchasers should review the full legal pack and obtain their own independent legal, planning and professional advice before bidding.
For developers, investors and self build buyers searching for land for sale in Windsor and Maidenhead, this Datchet opportunity provides a sizeable freehold site with existing services, direct access and potential for future residential development, subject to planning permission.
