A genuinely rare 11-acre Devon holding offering biodiversity, seclusion and practical off-grid services close to Exeter. The site benefits from planning consent for a workers’ dwelling and alpaca breeding, plus permission for a sewage treatment plant — an attractive base for small-scale livestock, conservation projects or an alternative lifestyle.
The current on-site structure is basic and temporary, providing a simple kitchen/dining area, sitting space with wood-burning stove and sleeping accommodation. Solar panels with battery storage and a borehole supply reduce running costs and make the site largely self-sufficient; mains broadband is very slow so expect limited internet performance. Parking is plentiful and the hamlet location provides excellent mobile signal and very low local crime.
This holding suits someone seeking land-first potential rather than a ready-to-move-in home: there is clear scope to convert or replace the temporary building in line with the existing planning consent. The plot’s size, free-draining soils and chemical-free management are strong assets for low-intensity farming, rewilding or small enterprise. Buyers should note the off-grid nature and basic existing accommodation — some capital and practical commitment will be needed to develop facilities to conventional standards.
