Ingoldisthorpe - An Award-Winning Self-Build Case Study

Ingoldisthorpe - An Award-Winning Self-Build Case Study
Ten self-build homes and two affordable houses are arranged around a new village green, creating a place that feels authentic, well-loved, and rooted in its surroundings. Each home is different, yet they sit together comfortably thanks to a simple design code - giving self-builders creative freedom while keeping the streetscape cohesive.

It’s a model of modest, incremental growth that could transform small settlements across the UK if repeated — adding homes without losing character, and building communities instead of just houses.

At Livedin, we help make projects like this possible. We guide landowners through our four-stage process: securing permissions, installing infrastructure, marketing serviced plots, and finally handing over to self-builders to create their own homes. The result? Places people are proud to live in, and projects that stand as a testament to what’s possible without volume housebuilders.
