Set between Totnes and Collaton St. Mary, this elevated 0.54-acre freehold site has full planning permission (Torbay Council P/2022/1363, granted Nov 2023) for two link-detached three-bedroom family homes. The approved designs use larch cladding, stone and zinc roofs, with ground-floor open-plan living, bi-fold doors and south-facing gardens that maximise light and countryside views.
Practical details are straightforward: mains water and electricity are on site but the buyer is responsible for final connections. Access is via a shared drive/track which will be retained by the seller, and each dwelling has private parking and a single garage. A derelict outbuilding/ barn sits on the plot and will require restoration or removal depending on your plan.
This site suits a housebuilder or an owner-occupier developer looking to deliver contemporary family homes in a semi-rural location. Local schools are well regarded, bus services link to Totnes and Paignton, and the A38 provides good road access to Exeter and Plymouth. There is no flood risk and mobile and broadband coverage are strong.
Buyers should note local socio-economic indicators show some area deprivation and the shared access arrangement may require an easement or management agreement. EPCs are exempt for land; council tax banding is to be confirmed. Overall, the plot offers clear planning-led value with immediate scope for delivery, subject to connection costs and access arrangements.
