A substantial brownfield site in central Okehampton with outline permission for 19 dwellings, offered freehold. The level 0.49ha (c.1.21 acres) plot sits a short, level walk from shops, services and the reopened Dartmoor Line rail link, making it suitable for a small housing scheme of bungalows, dormer bungalows and houses as illustrated in the planning pack.
Outline planning permission (WDBC 4113/21/OPA granted 19 Aug 2025) means the principle of residential redevelopment is established, but appearance, landscaping, layout and scale remain reserved and will require a reserved matters submission. A S106 agreement dated 13 Aug 2025 requires developer contributions; two car parking spaces are also to be retained for the previous landowner.
The site offers clear development potential for housebuilders or residential investors, with on-site parking and dual pedestrian access including a right of way adjacent to the public library. However, a portion of the western boundary lies inside a Conservation Area and the site carries a high flood risk — both factors that will affect design, mitigation costs and the planning strategy. A previous permission for a 60-bed care home has lapsed (won on appeal in 2013), and planning and technical reports are available in the information pack.
