This plot in Evercreech comes with approved planning for a single-storey, partially subterranean two-bedroom home designed for high energy performance. The scheme includes a green living roof, high insulation and an air source heat pump, creating low running costs and strong sustainability credentials. The approved access is via a 5m-wide private driveway, and the garden will use the disused railway embankment to the west, providing a generous and private outdoor area.
The existing site is large (circa 1,174 sqm) with several outbuildings, lawn, shrubs and small trees, giving scope to preserve green space while constructing the permitted dwelling. The plot sits on the edge of Evercreech, a quiet village with basic amenities and rail links within a short drive; broadband and mobile signals are reported as strong and the local area is classed as affluent with low crime.
Buyers should note material points before viewing: the rear garden is overgrown and will require clearance and landscaping; the approved scheme requires excavation and construction (partially subterranean), so build costs and site works must be budgeted. Tenure and council tax banding are not specified. There is an exclusivity fee (£2,000) and a processing fee (£200) referenced as part of the purchase process, and purchasers are subject to vetting prior to sale.
This opportunity suits someone seeking to deliver a bespoke, low-energy home or an investor attracted to a ready-approved eco development in a peaceful Somerset setting. Viewing the site is recommended to appreciate scale, access and the relationship to neighbouring land and the disused railway garden area.
