This 1.1-acre parcel on the northern edge of Othery offers a ready development opportunity with outline planning consent for two open-market dwellings and five self-build plots (consent granted 20 July 2024; reference 38/24/00001 / 28/24/00001). The long, narrow site runs rearwards from the roadside, with mature trees screening the western boundary and a mix of outbuildings currently occupying the land.
The location balances village character with commuter access: Othery has a primary school, village hall and local amenities, and is roughly 12 miles from Taunton and 7 miles from Bridgwater with straightforward links to the M5. The setting provides attractive rural views and good road frontage with direct vehicular access from the public road.
Practical considerations: the plot’s triangular/linear shape and relatively narrow width will influence layout and servicing of individual plots; prospective purchasers should confirm detailed planning, drainage, wayleaves, easements and utilities. Broadband is slow and mobile signal is average in the area. The land is sold freehold and may be purchased as a whole or in parts.
This site suits developers, self-build groups or investors seeking a small rural development with planning in place. It offers clear potential for completed unit values in a low-crime, established farming-community setting, but requires careful site design and statutory checks before detailed consent or construction.
