Property description & features

  • Tenure: Freehold
  • Building Plot For Sale
  • Planning Permission Granted
  • Own Water Supply
COMPLETELY OFF GRID BUILDING SITE FOR SALE. A rare opportunity to acquire a single building plot in a very pleasant location just half a mile from the town centre. Ideal for a self-builder. Set along a short no through lane, just off Lyme Road in Axminster. This is a lovely, quiet position set amongst a small number of individual properties that share the access lane. The town centre is just half a mile away. Planning permission has been granted to demolish the existing double garage and erect a light and spacious off grid, 2 bedroom, 2 bathroom bungalow. The planning application can be viewed on the East Devon planning portal under application number: 22/1581/RES. The site is enclosed with panel fencing and locked gates with parking to the front and a stone boundary wall to the rear.

There is a large shed on site which has solar panels installed on the roof, providing 240 volt electricity with battery storage. A bore hole has recently been dug which now provides a water supply with a capacity of around 47 litres per minute. It has been recommended that a new sewage treatment plant should be installed for the new dwelling.

Axminster is an old market town made famous by the Axminster carpet company and is situated on the River Axe in East Devon. There is a main line train station with services to London Waterloo and Exeter and the town provides a good range of day to day shopping, banking and health needs with plenty of cafes. The popular seaside resort of Lyme Regis is less than 6 miles away and the surrounding area has been designated as being of Outstanding Natural Beauty.

Places of interest

We want to match your property to the right buyer and make the whole process as stress free as we can, leaving you with the confidence of being able to recommend our service to others.

    Broadband availability and predicted speed

    Broadband speed is measured in megabits per second, with the number returned showing how fast the connection is. Each reading is based on the highest predicted speed of any major broadband network for services that deliver the download speeds. The following are the different readings that we may display:

    Basic: Up to 30 Mbit/s
    Super-fast: Between 30 Mbit/s and 300 Mbit/s
    Ultra-fast: Over 300 Mbit/s

    The data is updated three times a year. The checker results are predictions and should not be regarded as guaranteed. For more information, see: https://checker.ofcom.org.uk/en-gb/about-checker#Answer_0_2

    Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength: obtained from Ofcom on February 9, 2023

    Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:

    Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
    Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
    Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
    Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
    Enhanced: Full bars, likely to have good coverage indoors and to receive an enhanced data rate to support multimedia services
