    We are looking to build our own home but have noticed that the sites with planning permission come with an pre planned house that I assume cannot be deviated.
    The idea of building our own home rather than buying is that we can design the house ourselves.
    Will all sites with pp have a pre designed plan?
    How can you get a site and build the house you would like yourself?
    TIA

    You’ll have to buy a site alone then.
    Any site that has PP granted will be subject to that design unless you lodge a new planning.

    You could always buy the site with PP and lodge a new planning for your design. Worse case you fall back into what is already granted.
