Well, you need a plot of land in the general area where you want to live, which has been designated for housing, and which - hopefully - isn't on a flood plain. Beyond that, the proximity of your site to main roads, shops, schools, etc. is a matter of personal preference.

Take a look at the UK Selfbuild group on Yahoo. Lots of information and advice, freely and amicably given by people with genuine experience.

No. It has to be right where you want to live. (Unless you have a diy open cast mining outfit.)
Like a previous poster said, it aught to have a nice view as these are the most difficult to install. Also the proximity of shops is a qualification that should not be ignored. Try to pick shops near a dole office to save building time.
