The Headlands, Solva – Exceptional Coastal Building Plots - No. 7 The Headlands

An extraordinary opportunity is now available to acquire one of six premium building plots overlooking the breathtaking Solva coastline in the Pembrokeshire Coast National Park. These plots represent the culmination of a remarkable 20-year journey to secure full planning permission, offering buyers the rare chance to create a bespoke coastal home in one of Wales’ most sought-after locations – on a par with the very best addresses in Devon and Cornwall.

Situated on the edge of Solva village, the development enjoys a tranquil yet highly convenient setting. It is less than a five-minute walk to the local shop and the quay via well-established footpaths, with the world-famous Pembrokeshire Coast Path nearby – a spectacular 50-minute walk along the coastline leads directly to St Davids.

Each plot enjoys captivating views across National Trust farmland to the easterly side and overlooks The Gribin opposite – part of the iconic Pembrokeshire coastline. These areas are protected and will never be built on, ensuring the scenery remains unspoiled for generations to come.

You don’t have to be a resident to enjoy a maritime lifestyle either – second-home owners can also apply for boat mooring rights in the harbour through The Solva Harbour Society, making these plots especially appealing to those seeking a holiday base or weekend retreat.

Experience an unparalleled coastal lifestyle with panoramic sea views and fully installed infrastructure, including high-speed internet. Prices start from £325,000, with the potential to design and build an individual, striking contemporary home incorporating the latest eco-credentials.

Penrhyn at the Headlands
Penrhyn, located at the left-hand side of The Headlands, is to be fully modernised in keeping with the architectural style of the six plots, complementing the development’s overall design vision.

Potential Build

This plot offers an exceptional development opportunity to create a modern family residence in Solva, designed with space, functionality, and lifestyle in mind. The site is fully serviced, with mains drainage, mains water, electricity, and high-speed broadband already connected. In addition, the estate road has been constructed to first tarmac with kerbing installed, ensuring immediate and straightforward access. As a result, construction can commence without delay.

The carefully considered example floorplan combines generous living areas with practical features, ensuring the property will suit both everyday living and entertaining. Further details of the approved external house designs can be viewed via the Pembrokeshire Coast National Park Authority planning portal using reference NP/21/0298/FUL.

On the ground floor, the layout flows from a contemporary open-plan kitchen and dining area—complete with pantry and utility—to a large living room, ideal for family gatherings. A dedicated office provides valuable workspace for homeworking, while a cloakroom adds convenience.

Upstairs, the first floor features four spacious bedrooms, including a principal suite with walk-in wardrobe, en-suite, and access to a private balcony. The additional bedrooms are well-served by family bathrooms and storage areas, making the design practical for families or visiting guests.

Estimated Build Costs

Based on current construction guidelines and allowing for a high-quality fit out, the estimated cost for completing this build is £652,500. Costs are, of course, dependent on variables such as ground conditions, materials chosen, and final specification. The absence of VAT on new builds provides a further advantage to prospective buyers.

This represents an exciting opportunity to commission a bespoke new home in one of West Wales’ most desirable coastal locations, with the added benefit of a fully serviced, build-ready plot enabling an immediate start on site.
