Description - Victoria Farm benefits outline consent for demolishing all buildings on site and replacement with seven new bespoke homes.
The site currently comprises the redundant farmhouse and range of steel and traditional stone buildings. It has been partly cleared and tidied, but responsibility for the removal of built structures will be the purchasers. There is potential, STPP, for an owner occupier seeking to retain the existing buildings or alternative scope for a different scheme.
Level site with excellent road access. Unaffected by the Phosphate issues.
An illustrative site layout was provided as part of the outline submission (page 3 of brochure), which suggested a mix of 3, 4 & 5 bedroom detached home types. It is anticipated this could provide approximately 12,000sqft floor area with an estimated total Guide Prices once completed of approximately £4,800,000, scheme and development depending. Parties must satisfy themselves in respect of potential scheme end values.
It will be a low-density site, extending to 2.5 acres, providing an excellent opportunity to create a unique development of quality homes with good sized gardens and potential for ample green space and planting. Rarely available nearby Wells.
Planning - Outline consent approved 11 October 2023. Further details regarding the outline planning consent can be found via the Somerset (Mendip) Council online Planning Portal using reference 2021/2433/OTS. Interested parties must satisfy their own planning investigations. A Planning & Property information pack is available upon request from the agent.
Location - Situated at West Horrington, near Wells. It benefits from a regular bus service, adjacent bus stop, to Wells and Bath and there are good road links to the A37 and A39, making Bath and Bristol an easy commuting distance as well as Bristol Airport.

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 October 13, 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
