This is a rare freehold development site in Marshwood Vale with detailed planning permission (Nov 2023, Ref: P/FUL/2021/00544) for four detached houses. The plots sit on a very large, level field on the western edge of the village, enjoying far-reaching views within an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. The location provides easy access to Bridport, Beaminster, Axminster and Lyme Regis while retaining a peaceful rural character.
The permission covers a mix of two- and three-bedroom detached houses (with studies that could serve as additional bedrooms) and garages; net floor areas range from c.1,335 to c.1,569 sqft (excluding garages). The consent is subject to a Section 106 Agreement and restricts occupation to main residences only — important constraints for sale strategy and rental planning.
Services include mains electricity and water, but private sewage treatment systems will need to be installed. There is no mobile signal on site despite fast broadband speeds nearby; purchasers should plan utility and communications provision accordingly. Low local crime, a popular village primary school and abundant countryside recreation add to the development’s appeal for owner-occupiers.
This site will suit a small-volume housebuilder, local developer or investor targeting high-spec family homes in an attractive rural setting. Buyers should allow for S106 obligations, on-site foul water arrangements and the cost of connecting and securing utilities and access before construction commences.
