Set on the edge of Hatherleigh, this substantial freehold plot of around two acres offers a rare chance to build a bespoke family home amid pasture, woodland and a natural spring. Outline planning permission (ref: 1384/24/OPA) is granted for a detached dwelling, with earlier approvals indicating a potential 2,000+ sq ft three- or four-bedroom house. Mains drainage and water consent are in place and electricity is available at the roadside.
The land suits buyers seeking sustainable living, small-scale agriculture or private outdoor space — grazing, crops and woodland management are all possible. The site is tucked yet accessible to local amenities, weekly markets and scenic walking routes on the Tarka Trail; mobile signal is excellent and there is no flood risk recorded.
Buyers should note this sale is via the Modern Method of Auction. The purchase attracts a non-refundable Reservation Fee of 4.5% (minimum £6,600) and a Buyer Information Pack fee (£349). Broadband speeds are slow locally and the area records pockets of deprivation — factors to consider for remote working or long-term resale.
There is lapsed planning for a barn (renewed consent required) and any final design will need to follow the outline permission conditions. This plot is offered at a guide price of £150,000, providing a comparatively affordable route to a significant rural build and plenty of flexibility for personal specification.
