Read the full agent description
This attractive, level building plot forms part of a former field that has been carefully divided into a small collection of individual plots, creating a bespoke residential enclave known as The Rivers development.
Designed to foster a sense of community while maintaining privacy, the site represents an excellent opportunity for purchasers seeking to create a high quality home in a peaceful yet accessible setting.
The plot benefits from its own independent access directly onto the public highway, with no shared vehicular crossover, offering both convenience and long term practicality.
Full planning permission has been granted by Torridge District Council under application number 1/0728/2024/FUL, with works already commenced, ensuring there are no time restrictions on starting construction.
Mains services are in the process of being installed, allowing the completed property to benefit from mains water, drainage and electricity.
Importantly, the planning consent carries no additional Section 106 contributions, making this an attractive and cost effective self build proposition.
The approved design is for a thoughtfully planned bungalow providing approximately 68 square metres of well proportioned accommodation. The layout has been carefully considered to maximise natural light and create a bright, welcoming living environment.
At the heart of the home is a triple aspect open plan lounge, kitchen and dining area, offering an excellent space for everyday living and entertaining. Two bedrooms are provided, both featuring built in wardrobes, alongside a well appointed bathroom with a separate shower. Additional roof windows further enhance the light and airy feel throughout the property.
The vendor has worked closely with the architect to refine the internal layout and produce detailed design drawings and visual renders. These will be transferred to the purchaser, providing a valuable head start when preparing the final building regulations working drawings and moving the project forward.
The site will appeal particularly to buyers looking for a self build home in a popular and unspoilt location, within easy reach of the north Cornish coastline.
Services mains water, drainage and electricity to be installed prior to completion.
