Large consented site for a substantial residential scheme on Bideford’s edge.
Outline consent for up to 211 dwellings and public open space
A strategic, greenfield development site of about 49 acres (19.9 ha) on the southern edge of Bideford, offered with outline planning consent for up to 211 dwellings. The sloping, largely south-facing parcel benefits from countryside and estuary-facing aspects, direct vehicular access proposed from Clovelly Road, and proximity to existing commercial park and local infrastructure.
Outline consent (Torridge District Council ref 1/0656/2020/OUTM) permits residential-led delivery with up to 4.27 ha of commercial land (B2, B8 and E(g)), public open space and required infrastructure; all matters are reserved except access. The consent includes provision for 13 affordable dwellings (c.6%) and confirms the site is suitable for a substantial, strategic housing scheme rather than individual plots.
Important commercial caveat: the employment/commercial element will be serviced but is excluded from this sale, and interest is invited for the whole site or part. Practical considerations include slow broadband provision locally, average mobile signal, and crime levels noted as above average in the immediate area. No flooding risk is recorded for the site.
This opportunity suits developers or investors targeting medium-to-large scale residential delivery in North Devon who can progress reserved matters and on-site servicing. The site’s size, orientation and edge-of-town location offer scope for a mixed housing scheme with amenity/open space and employment adjacency, subject to detailed design and infrastructure planning.
